Hunter Dickinson put on a show Monday night for Kansas Basketball, and Bill Self didn’t hesitate to give him his flowers after the game. “I thought he was the best player in the game, obviously,” Self said. “We got killed on the glass, and if it wasn’t for Hunter, it would’ve been worse.”

On a day when Kansas could count on very little on the offensive end, it could at least rely on its old standby, center Hunter Dickinson. Dickinson scored a season-high 32 points on 13-for-18 shooting and grabbed 13 rebounds,

Colorado took its only lead when Hammond scored in the paint to make it 39-38 with 15:39 remaining. Dickinson answered with a jumper and a three-point play and Kansas never trailed again. The Buffaloes managed to even the score twice and trailed 62-60 after Hammond nailed a 3-pointer with 4:12 left. They would get no closer.
