It wasn’t much — a 30-minute run-through in front of youth campers at Kansas’ Horejsi Center — but Tuesday was a bit of an unofficial welcoming for Josh Jackson at Kansas.
The nation’s No. 1 recruit circled through shooting drills and, at the end, skied high during an impromptu dunk contest, wearing a KU practice jersey for the first time.
Though Bill Self is quick to say no one should make too much of this — it wasn’t an official practice, and this is early June, after all — the KU coach wasn’t backing down expectations for the 6-foot-7 guard in his first season.
