Kansas Basketball: Can KU Blow Out the Roos?

The UMKC Roos are very guard dominant, and only get 12 points per game from their starting big men. The Roos are undersized up front as well, with four man Kyle Steward listed at 6’7 and 190 pounds, and center Darnell Tillman at 6’8 265. Neither are scoring threats, or great rebounders. Steward averages 4.4 rebounds per game, and Tillman averages 5.3. Tillman, Steward, and freshman Duane Clark are the only big men to average more than 10 minutes per game, so depth will become an issue for Kareem Richardson’s veteran team. This provides an opportunity for the Kansas basketball team.
