Kansas basketball does a lot of things right. They shoot the ball well, they play good defense, and ultimately play hard. The Jayhawks have all of the talent in the world, and its a Final Four or bust kind of season with the threat of NCAA sanctions looming in the future.
Still, there’s just one statistic where the Jayhawks really struggle: non-steal turnover percentage.
According to renowned basketball statistic website kenpom.com, Kansas basketball ranks 337 out of 353 teams non-steal turnover percentage. Now you may be asking yourself “what is non-steal turnover percentage?”
Non-steal turnovers are exactly what they sound like, any turnover that isn’t “forced” by the defense is considered a non-steal turnover.
