Kansas' backcourt: The best closers in college basketball

Kansas guards Frank Mason III and Devonte' Graham have the Jayhawks eyeing a Final Four run because they walked out of last year's Elite Eight experience as different players.

They know how to close games as well as any backcourt in the nation.

It almost seems as if they're just showing off, but they were at it again during Monday's 73-63 win over Oklahoma.

Of course, they didn't arrive at Kansas that way.

Mason originally committed to Towson and Graham to Appalachian State out of high school and they constantly heard they weren't even supposed to be on this level, which had to motivate them.
