Harris emerging as key backup point guard for Kansas
Redshirt freshman Dajuan Harris, averaging 14.8 minutes in nine games, has become a central backup for KU. He filled as point guard 36 percent of the time in recent games, often pairing with Marcus Garrett or sharing time in small-ball lineups. Coach Bill Self has praised his impact, saying the offense flows better with Harris on the floor and that he must grow more aggressive, noting his improving play as Big 12 play opens at Texas Tech.
