Potential All-American run continues Agbaji supplied 27 points (8-22 FG, 4-14 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Saturday's 80-70 loss to Baylor.
Impact Agbaji now has four consecutive games of 20 or more points as he looks to solidify his chance to take home Big 12 Player of the Year, as well as a possible All-American nomination.

Saturday's win was also pivotal for the Jayhawks Big 12 regular season championship aspirations, as Kansas is now a half-game up on Baylor with three regular season games remaining.
