F William Kyle III - South Dakota State

2023-24 Statistics: 35 G, 13.1 PPG, 6.6 RPG, 1.7 APG, 1.6 BPG, 62.3% FG, 58.0% FT

A teammate of the aforementioned Zeke Mayo, Kyle excels on the defensive end and is a premier shot-blocker. His offensive game could use some work and his free throw shooting leaves something to be desired. However, he improved as a post-up player in the 2023-24 season and is a great offensive rebounder.

Kyle could replace Parker Braun as KU's backup big, but it does not make much sense if the Jayhawks add him if they plan to give him a sizeable role in the rotation.
