They may have to put those Press Virginia T-shirts they're selling on the concourse on clearance. (I'm guessing WVU is saving its pressure looks for 2nd half at this point. But who knows?) #KUbball
Self mentioned the other day how good Garrett can be at getting downhill. The sophomore did it just now and got a layup (goaltend on WVU). #kubball up 13-12
Really good minutes by K.J. Lawson there... Energy was up. He competed and #KUbball went on a 6-0 run to take a 15-12 lead. Under-8 timeout 1H in Morgantown.
Nice activity from McCormack on the offensive glass to get Dedric Lawson another crack at it inside. #KUbball 4 rebounds in 5 minutes for the big freshman in the 1st half.
McCormack and Lawson have done good work on the glass. Both have 4 rebounds. Ochai has 3. And #KUbball is out-rebounding the Mountaineers 16-8, including 4-0 on the offensive glass, which was a HUGE key for Kansas coming into this one.
With that Gordon dunk, WVU leads points in the paint 18-14. KU up 21-20 on the scoreboard. 2:00 left in 1st half. Neither team has hit a 3. It is 2019. #KUbball
HALFTIME in Morgantown... After a good start and a sloppy 15 minutes to follow, #KUbball and West Virginia are tied at 23. Going to be a very interesting second half. If KU continues to rebound, they'll be in it. If they don't start taking care of the ball, they won't. Buckle up.
Smooth Euro-step to avoid contact and finish a transition layup by Grimes. Allows KU to head to locker room at the half tied with WVU at 23. #KUbball It was Grimes' 1st bucket.
KU missed 6 layups in the 1st half. WVU missed 3. WVU leads points in the paint 20-16. #KUbball shot 37% in 1st half and 0 for 6 from 3. WVU shot 42.3% and 0 for 3 from 3.
Wasn't an awful half, wasn't a good half. Just completely missed a purpose. Look for #KUbball to try to feed Dedric even more this half and get him going, therein giving the offense an identity. 23-23 as we open up.
Garrett's feeling it today on both ends... Already has a career-high-tying four steals and went for the 5th right there. Got foul No. 2 instead. #Kubball trails 34-32, 16:43 2H
The Jayhawks have made 3 3-pointers in a row, sandwiched around 2 layup. KU up 38-34. 15:55 left in 2nd half at WVU. Dotson, Grimes & Vick have hit from deep after KU went 0-for-the-1st half. #KUbball
