Lineup No. 6

PG: Dajuan Harris
CG: Elmarko Jackson
G: Nick Timberlake
F: KJ Adams
C: Hunter Dickinson

Let’s not forget the five-star combo guard that Kansas recruited! The commitment of Morris has clouded the possible impact that Jackson could have on next year’s roster. His game is very similar to Arterio’s, and his freshman season at Texas certainly was not an indicator of how fans want him to play.

Jackson is a very athletic guard who can rim-run and potentially develop a jump shot. He would be able to play off of Harris while still distributing the ball to others. Assuming he can shoot the ball well next to Timberlake and find Dickinson easy baskets, this team would score many points.
