Kansas’ three-game winning streak against fellow blueblood Kentucky is over.
Sophomore forward P.J. Washington scored 20 points and grabbed 13 rebounds while Reid Travis scored 18 points (with 12 boards) and Keldon Johnson 15 points (with 10 boards) as the No. 8-ranked Wildcats (16-3) upended the No. 9-rated Jayhawks 71-63 on Saturday in an SEC/Big 12 Challenge contest at Rupp Arena.
Dedric Lawson scored 20 points and grabbed 15 rebounds for the Jayhawks (16-4), who had defeated Kentucky at Rupp Arena just two seasons ago to go with a victory in the Champions Classic last season and a win at Allen Fieldhouse in 2016-17.
