Kevin McCullar - Shows off all-around game McCullar provided 15 points (5-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals over 26 minutes during Friday's 99-61 victory over Manhattan.
Impact After contributing as more of a defensive presence last season, McCullar has taken on a larger offensive role for the Jayhawks through their first two games, trailing only Hunter Dickinson in scoring with an 18 point per game average. However, after matching a career high with four three-pointers in his first game, McCullar made just one of five attempts on Friday night. If he can improve upon last season's 29.6% shooting from behind the arc, it would only serve to make the number one team in the land an even more difficult team to defend.

Elmarko Jackson - Records five assists Jackson logged eight points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists and one rebound across his 21 minutes during the Jayhawks' 99-56 win Monday against North Carolina Central.
Impact Jackson logged his Kansas debut Monday. Despite playing limited minutes, the combo guard showed how well he could pass by recording five assists without multiple turnovers. Jackson's playmaking ability should not be surprising to fantasy managers though, considering he averaged 6.0 assists during his last season of high school, one of multiple reasons why Kansas recruited him in the first place.

Jamari McDowell - Dealing with injury Coach Bill Self said McDowell is not playing in the season opener Monday due to an injury, Michael Swain of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact McDowell was spotted in street clothes while his teammates warmed up. It appears McDowell suffered an injury at some point in the last week. The freshman is projected to play a bench role this season for the Jayhawks, but departures over the summer could lead to that being bigger than initially expected once he returns from injury.

Impact It's unclear why McDowell wouldn't be playing in this game. This will certainly make an already thin team that much thinner, even against inferior competition. Hopefully coach Bill Self gives a reason after to the game as to why McDowell is not available.
