Bill Self reveals lasting effect from monster win over BYU for Flory Bidunga

When the No. 11 Kansas Jayhawks took down BYU earlier this month in a 90-82 win over the then No. 13 Cougars, the nation was keen on seeing the duel between potential first picks Darryn Peterson and AJ Dybantsa. Peterson notched 18 points on 6-8 shooting before cramping kept him out for most of the second half, as Dybantsa found it hard to garner any consistent momentum, as the game was constantly levitating to one person.

Flory Bidunga.

Bidunga finished the eventual win with 16 points, six rebounds, four assists, and two blocks. Bidunga’s elite defense mostly stifled Dybantsa, who finished with 17 points off of 12 shots and three free throws, causing Dybantsa to post his third-lowest scoring total all season.
