Kansas Jayhawks Face Houston in High-Stakes Basketball Showdown
The No. 12 Kansas Jayhawks men’s basketball team is preparing for a high-stakes showdown against No. 7 Houston on Saturday at Allen Fieldhouse. Head coach Bill Self provided updates on the injury status of forwards KJ Adams and Zach Clemence, confirming that neither player will be available for the game. Adams, who suffered a separated shoulder in a Jan. 15 matchup against Iowa State, is progressing in his recovery but remains sidelined. Self expressed hope that Adams could return within one to two weeks, though no exact timeline has been set. Clemence, who has been out since December with a groin injury, is still limited to non-contact work and is not close to returning to practice or game action.
The Jayhawks will rely on their remaining big men, including Hunter Dickinson and Flory Bidunga, to step up against Houston’s formidable defense and rebounding prowess. Houston enters the game on an 11-game winning streak and boasts one of the nation’s top defenses, ranking first in adjusted defensive efficiency. Kansas, meanwhile, ranks fourth in the same category, setting the stage for a defensive battle.
Self also addressed the energy levels at Allen Fieldhouse, noting a perceived drop in student enthusiasm compared to previous seasons. He called for a renewed intensity from the crowd as the Jayhawks look to secure a marquee win in the Big 12. The game will be a test of Kansas’ depth and resilience, as they aim to overcome the absence of Adams and Clemence and extend their momentum following a recent victory over TCU.
