4. If Kansas basketball players can match up with professionals

KU’s final two games of the trip will be against the Bahamian National Team. Per their website, the roster is made up of NBA players such as Klay Thompson, Buddy Hield, Kai Jones, and even former Jayhawk standout Remy Martin.

The national team is scheduled for three games that day, so they will likely be dispersed across different locations. That means Kansas will not see every player on the team. However, the majority of them are still professionals, so watching the experienced Jayhawks compete against them should be intriguing.
