Players to watch
The Jayhawks bring in talented freshman Josh Jackson at small forward, a position at which Kansas has had plenty of talent. Jackson will be asked to compliment the veteran backcourt of Frank Mason III and Devonte' Graham, since the Jayhawks are lacking a big frontcourt presence. Look for all three of them to be a big part of the offense.
The Hoosiers will sorely miss playmaker Yogi Ferrell this year, though James Blackmon Jr. should have an outstanding season after missing half of the 2015-16 with an injury. Indiana will also rely heavily on sophomores Thomas Bryant and OG Anunoby, and both have the ability to be the stars of the offense.
