![]() ![]() If he can be this kind of player off the bench, then Kansas becomes more dangerous in the NCAA Tournament. ![]() His 10 points was his most since a 15-point game in mid-December. Martin was a starter and significant contributor before the injury. On Friday he actually came to the interview room after the game and declared himself 100 percent. He’s been limited for two months with a knee injury he suffered at the start of Big 12 play. Eight different Jayhawks scored, but the Martin development is encouraging for the Jayhawks. ![]() Against TCU, along with Agbaji’s 22 points, the Jayhawks got 15 points from Mitch Lightfoot and 10 points from Remy Martin. Kansas: Kansas has achieved a fine balance in its two Big 12 Tournament games. While Tech doesn’t have a true point guard, Arms has turned into one of the Red Raiders’ de facto ball handlers, and in key moments this season the ball has been in his hands and he’s gotten the job done, whether it’s making a key shot or a key pass. He’s shot 50 percent or better in both games. The Red Raiders have played low-scoring games to this point, so the premium is on players like Arms being efficient, and he has been. Arms had nine points against Oklahoma on Friday, and it was his second game in the tournament with nine or more points. Texas Tech G Adonis Arms: The talented guard is one of many Red Raiders that have helped them get to this point. He’s also dangerous from the 3-point line. Entering the Big 12 Tournament he was averaging 19.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.7 assists and is playing 35 minute per game. He’s a presumed lottery pick for the NBA Draft, but for now he’s set on trying to get the Jayhawks to a Big 12 Tournament title and a No. He is on the final ballot for the National Player of the Year award and was the Big 12 Player of the Year selection by Heartland College Sports, the Big 12’s coaches and the Associated Press. He’s capable of carrying the Jayhawks on his back if needed, but to this point he’s had plenty of help. He had a 22-point game against TCU on Friday night, and before that he scored 18 points as the Jayhawks cruised by West Virginia in the quarterfinals. Kansas G Ochai Agbaji: If Kansas wins, the senior guard is likely to be the Tournament’s Most Outstanding Player.
