Lineup No. 3

PG: Dajuan Harris
G: Nick Timberlake
G: Jaylon Tyson
F: KJ Adams
C: Hunter Dickinson

A similar lineup to No. 2 with Jaylon Tyson. Morris also heads to the bench here in lieu of Timberlake. Tyson offers similar qualities to Mgbako, who shot 40.2 percent from deep last season. He also has two years of eligibility remaining, while Mgbako would likely be a one-and-done.

Most Kansas fans would likely prefer Mgbako to Tyson, and Tyson would need to receive a waiver to play immediately next season. Don’t get it twisted, though — this is still a national championship contending lineup.
