Needing to shed some baby fat, 16-year-old Kansas freshman Udoka Azubuike has dropped 27 pounds since arriving on campus for summer school in June.
In need of some bulk, fellow frosh Josh Jackson has gained 17 pounds in the same time frame, while svelte sophomore Carlton Bragg has added 26 pounds since the end of the 2015-16 season.
Those are some of the more dramatic results made by KU basketball players in the training room/weight room in a relatively short period of time.
“These guys have goals. They come here in part because we have the resources to help them attain their goals,” said Andrea Hudy, KU’s 13th-year assistant athletic director for sports performance.
