In his freshman season, Dick has proven to be a spark plug for a Jayhawks team that lost several key contributors from their championship-winning roster. The young guard is averaging 14.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists for the 12-1 Jayhawks.
However, Dick scored just eight points in Kansas’ first conference game on Saturday. The Jayhawks rallied to beat Oklahoma State 69-67. Dick added nine rebounds and four assists.
“I feel great and obviously, it’s a win; we needed some of these tough wins,” Dick said after the game, per the Kansas City Star. “It was a close game. Oklahoma State was amazing. … At the same time, it was good to see our guys come together, build off what coach Self says in the huddle.. “(We know) not to get worried, not to rush anything, just play our game. Basketball is a game of sequences, and we went on ours.”
It won’t get any easier for Gradey Dick and Kansas in their first conference road game on Tuesday. They’ll face a Texas Tech team that has allowed only 62.7 points per game thus far. While Kansas fans will be happy to see that Dick isn’t afraid to positively influence a close game in other ways when his shot isn’t falling, fading the freshman as a scorer offers some value for Tuesday’s slate.
