Silvio De Sousa’s first practice at Kansas will be Wednesday, not Tuesday as had been tentatively planned, coach Bill Self said Tuesday.

De Sousa, KU’s 6-foot-9, 230-pound freshman power forward from IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., had a flight from Florida to Kansas that was to arrive at Kansas City International airpot near the conclusion of Tuesday night’s practice. Tuesday’s workout was the first scheduled practice since the Jayhawks’ 75-54 victory over Stanford Thursday night in Sacramento, Calif.

“He needs to take his physical (exam) before he can practice, so we’ll get that done early in the morning (Wednesday),” Self told The Star in a phone conversation.
