Was available against Baylor Grant-Foster was available during Monday's 77-69 loss to Baylor but ended up not seeing the floor, Benton Smith of KU Sports reports.

Impact Grant-Foster didn't play Monday as head coach Bill Self stuck with a tight 8-man rotation for the game. The 6-7 junior saw a nice run earlier in the season but has seen his minutes decrease drastically since the Jayhawks have started conference play.

Self wants to integrate him into the gameplan more but will have to see more improvements before he can trust playing Grant-Foster in big-time moments.
