Kansas Basketball Pulls Away From Fordham Behind Strong Second Half

Categories: Local Sports

 

The Kansas Jayhawks pulled away from Fordham on Tuesday evening, turning a six-point lead with just under 14 minutes remaining into a 95-65 victory over the visiting Rams under head coach Bill Self. Kansas’ defense found its footing down the stretch, helping the Jayhawks create separation and secure the 30-point win.


With added depth on his roster, Self says it may take some time to get used to having more than eight key rotation players at his disposal. Every Jayhawk came off the bench, and eight players logged at least 13 minutes.

Tre White led Kansas with 22 points, while top recruit Tyran Stokes added 15 as the Crimson and Blue turned on the gas, scoring 52 points in the second half.


The Jayhawks will be back at Allen Fieldhouse this Friday to take on Middle Tennessee. Pregame coverage begins at 6:30 p.m., with tipoff set for 8 p.m. on US 98.
