The Kansas City Star unveiled an exclusive interview with Kansas basketball decommit Marcus Adams Jr. Some of the things he said might puzzle Jayhawks fans.

Marcus Adams Jr. surprised a large portion of the Kansas Jayhawks fanbase by becoming the second KU high school commit of the year to leave the program before playing a game in Lawrence.

The 4-star forward from Harbor City, California pledged to Bill Self’s Jayhawks in March. Soon after, he reclassed to 2023 so he could join the team this fall. However, after practicing with the rest of the squad for several weeks this summer, Adams decided it wasn’t the right fit for him.
