The Kansas men’s basketball team suffered a devastating loss to Baylor in Waco, Texas on Saturday afternoon. Despite leading by as many as 21 points in the first half, KU allowed Baylor to mount a historic comeback, resulting in their largest blown lead in a loss in school history. Baylor outscored KU 60-31 in the second half, with freshman Robert O. Wright III leading all scorers with 24 points. Despite a strong performance from Hunter Dickinson, who scored 20 points, the Jayhawks struggled to maintain their lead. The team failed to capitalize on open looks from beyond the arc and allowed Baylor to dominate in the second half. KU’s lack of energy and defensive stops enabled Baylor to take control of the game and secure the 81-70 victory. The Jayhawks will face a quick turnaround as they prepare to host Iowa State on Monday evening. It was a disappointing result for KU, as they look to bounce back from their loss against Baylor and secure a win against the Cyclones.
