Kansas Basketball Center Depth Chart

1. Hunter Dickinson
2. Parker Braun

It should come as no surprise that Dickinson, the most prized offseason acquisition in college basketball, will immediately assume starting duties. It begins to get tricky when you look at who can fill in for him when he needs a breather. Braun should be good for a handful of minutes per game but could be a liability during Big 12 play. In some cases, KJ Adams will move over to the 5 when Dickinson sits, and Johnny Furphy or Kevin McCullar can slide to the 4. Regardless, Braun will be listed as the backup, even though he won’t see the court often.
