The historic Allen Fieldhouse will once again play host to Big 12 basketball Thursday as the Kansas Jayhawks look to get back in the win column against the TCU Horned Frogs.
TCU Horned Frogs
TCU comes into this game having lost three consecutive games to put their win total at 9-5 on the season and 8th in the Big 12 standings. TCU has not played since January 12 when they fell short in blowout fashion against Oklahoma 82-46 on the road.
TCU’s offense has been in a funk of late as they have been unable to find the basket in the midst of their losing streak. TCU has scored 66 points or fewer in each of their last five games and they are shooting under 40 percent as a team during that stretch.
RJ Nembhard has improved his game drastically in his junior campaign for the Horned Frogs. The third-year guard leads the way for the Horned Frogs with 17.2 PPG on 46 percent shooting and 38.2 percent from 3-point land.
TCU will also need Kevin Samuel to hold his own on the interior to stand a chance against an intimidating Jayhawk frontline. Samuel shoots an efficient 63.8 percent at the rim, leads TCU in rebounds, and has an impressive block percentage of 8.4 to help anchor TCU’s defense.
TCU is holding its opponents to 30.8 percent from deep. The Horned Frogs are averaging 67.7 PPG and allowing 69.1 PPG. TCU’s most glaring weakness lies at the free throw line where they are converting at a 62.7 percent rate.
Kansas Jayhawks
Kansas, like TCU, is in the middle of a three game losing skid of their own. The Jayhawks are in their first three game losing streak since 2013 and sit at 4-4 in conference play. The Jayhawks are coming off a tough 75-68 loss at the hands of a talented Oklahoma Sooners squad.
The Jayhawks had been known for their gritty defense and rebounding in years past, but this season they have been much improved shooting and offensive wise. Kansas shoots 35.8 percent from three and has the 23rd best offensive rating in the nation.
While they have struggled on the glass of late, Kansas still holds the 45th best offensive rebounding rate in the country. Kansas has five different players averaging at least 4.5 RPG, with Jalen Wilson leading the way with 7.1 rebounds a night.
Kansas also has five different players averaging in double figures scoring wise. Ochai Agbaji paces the team with 14.5 PPG, while Wilson, David McCormack, Marcus Garrett and Christian Braun all average 44 PPG combined.
The Jayhawks will need more offensively from Garret moving forward. He turned in his second 20-point game of the season against Oklahoma and will have to remain consistent at the point guard for Kansas to make a deep run this year.
