Kansas basketball: 4 things to like about Puerto Rico trip, 4 causes for concern
The Kansas basketball exhibition games in Puerto Rico sparked reasons for both optimism and pessimism.
The Kansas Jayhawks came out of the Puerto Rico trip with two wins and a loss. Two out of three ain’t bad, especially when a group of college players are competing against a pair of NBA stars.
No team ever has its “end product” at the beginning of the year, let alone three months before it starts. It was a terrific experience for KU basketball head coach Bill Self’s group to bond together and focus on what they need to work on.
Although a few games in August won’t foretell how the 2023-24 season will go, it gives fans a sense of what to expect. We saw both positive and negative signs from the Jayhawks.
