Set to return against Oklahoma Garrett (head) will play Saturday against Oklahoma, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Coach Bill Self said he was "hopeful" of Garrett being available for Saturday's clash, and that will indeed be the case. He went through a full practice Friday, and that would seem to indicate he won't have any sort of limitations against the Sooners. He is averaging 9.1 points and 4.6 rebounds per game in 2020-21.

Impact Garrett's return would be a major boon for the Jayhawks on the ball after the senior was sidelined Tuesday due to a head issue that surfaced after he took an elbow to the face during last Saturday's game versus Texas. A final determination should arrive ahead of the 4:30 PM ET tip Saturday, with Dajuan Harris presumably set for an expanded role again should Garrett miss out.
