Always Be Closing! Kansas basketball player ratings from A to Z in Jayhawks win over Indiana

Tier 2: Baby Jays

4. Dajuan Harris

Juan played all 40 points and had an up-and-down game of results. He did hit several key shots down the stretch and proved his veteran mettle. His ball handling was a little loose early, and he had a few bad turnovers, but I will take 5-for-9 from the field from Juan all day. The mouse finished with 12 points, five assists, two rebounds, two steals, and three turnovers.

5. Jamari McDowell

Let the chants begin: Free Mari, Free Mari! McDowell played eight solid minutes and showed he belongs to be a key part of the rotation every game. Aside from getting beat backdoor once, his defense was solid, his energy is always great, and he hit a clutch 3-pointer. Mari finished his night with three points, one rebound, one assist, and one turnover.

6. Elmarko Jackson

Elmarko struggled a little early but battled on defense and had an okay game. Jackson had several great drives and dishes to teammates. One thing he has been is protective with the ball, as he has very few silly turnovers. He finished with five points, one rebound, three assists, two steals, and one turnover.
