SportsBeat KC: KU big man Azubuike leads Jayhawks to Big 12 title. Let’s talk about it
Udoka Azubuike was a beast. The Kansas senior center finished with 31 points, 14 rebounds and five blocked shots in his final game at Allen Fieldhouse as the Jayhawks defeated TCU Wednesday night to capture no worse than a share of the Big 12 championship. Kansas had trouble pulling away from the hot-shooting Horned Frogs and needed all of Azubuike’s production. Does KU have what it takes to make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament? Sam Mellinger and Jesse Newell join Blair Kerkhoff on this episode of our daily SportsBeat KC podcast to discuss Kansas and the Big 12.
