Some thoughts as Kansas gets its season back on track with a win over Iowa State
1. Dedric Lawson’s back must be sore
Lawson had the Jayhawks’ 2nd 29 point 15 rebound since 2010-11, played solid defense, and hit a huge three late to give the Jayhawks the win. He’s 4th in the Big 12 in usage, 9th in 2-point shooting, and even 5th in shot blocking.
2. Marcus Garrett is a star
I am still waiting for his offense to turn back into a pumpkin, but somehow Garrett is averaging 17 points per game over his last three, and is getting to the basket basically at will without a functional jump shot.
