Kansas senior point guard Devonté Graham shattered the 30-point mark for the second straight game as the Jayhawks mastered Syracuse and its fabled 2-3 zone 76-60 on Saturday at American Airlines Arena.
Graham, KU’s 6-foot-2 senior guard from Raleigh, N.C., who scored a career-high 35 points in Tuesday’s home win over Toledo, exploded for 35 points again, this time on 10-of-17 shooting.
He hit a career-best seven three-pointers in 13 tries, was 8 of 8 from the free-throw line and also had five assists playing in front of his mother and other family members, who sat behind KU’s bench.
