Here is the thing about Kansas guard Frank Mason. His head coach says he is healthy. Mason insists he is, too.
If there is something bothering the slumping Mason, Kansas coach Bill Self says, it is probably limited to basic soreness or fatigue. But Self knows better than anyone: If there was some ailment or injury hampering Mason’s play, he’d probably never hear about it anyway.
“I would hope that he would (tell me),” Self said Thursday. “But the reality is that he wouldn’t.”
Mason’s health has been a prime KU talking point in recent days, as coach and players re-evalulate themselves following a January lull.
