Parker Braun — Give serviceable minutes off the bench when Dickinson sits

I don’t think anybody is expecting much from Parker Braun. He is here to do one job — hold down the fort in the absence of Hunter Dickinson. If we can maintain a positive plus-minus while he is on the floor, I’d consider that a win for Kansas. It will be interesting to see what he can bring to the table as a rim protector. KJ Adams can also slide to the 5 in small-ball lineups.
