It was a back and forth rock fight all afternoon but Kansas took the W in a 62-60 slug fest. After leading by 7 in the first half, the Jayhawks struggled to gain separation from ISU for the rest of the game. Iowa State seemed to respond to each and every three pointer thrown in by Kansas.
In a rough shooting day for Kansas, Gradey Dick proved to be the spark. He made 5 of the Jayhawk’s 6 three pointers. Dick went for 21 total points. Jalen Wilson was 1 for 6 from three but still went for 16 and 11 for his 8th double double of the season.
