PLAYBOOK

Kansas PF Dedric Lawson is all of that and coming off of a 29 pt 15 reb night on a tough talented Iowa State Cyclones bunch...UK will have to maybe double him as they cannot let Lawson beat them all by his lonesome! 

Kentucky PF P.J. Washington makes the 'Cats go and when he is on his game lookout. This for NBA Scouts should be a really good match up Washington vs Lawson as Reid Travis will most likely get the most minutes on Lawson. 

Freshman Guards KU Quinten Grimes vs UK Tyler Herro as both are by far the best shooters on the floor and can they be consistent as both teams need them to stretch the hardwood!

In the Paint the Wildcats have an advantage as Kansas lost "Big" Udoka Azubiuke to a season-ending wrist injury and that opens the paint up for UK as the Jawhawks will ned everyone on the glass. 

Transition O vs Transition D...who wins?

Coach Self vs Coach Cal...

KU Bench vs UK Bench as Kansas depth has taken a hit....who ins?
