‘Leadership, toughness’ lacking as turnover-plagued KU falls to K-State, 74-67

It’s easy to look at the stat sheet and once again blame turnovers for a Kansas basketball loss on the road.

Easy, but not accurate, coach Bill Self said after Tuesday’s exceedingly sloppy 74-67 loss to rival Kansas State at Bramlage Coliseum.

“I really think people think there’s a common theme — turnovers,” Self said after the Jayhawks’ 23 turnovers contributed to the team’s sixth loss in seven road games in 2018-19.

KU had 24 turnovers in a loss at Iowa State and 18 bobbles in a setback at West Virginia.
