"Bill Self has such an advantage over most teams due to his veteran-laden lineup, which features three seniors in Ochai Agbaji, David McCormack and Remy Martin, and one junior in Christian Braun. Not only can all four of them get a bucket if needed, having that sort of experience on the floor allows Self not to micromanage when an opponent goes on a run. That happened against St. John's a couple of times on Friday, when the Red Storm cut the lead to three. Kansas immediately responded with a 22-3 run and put the game out of reach. Braun was the star on Friday, finishing with 31 points, eight rebounds, four assists and three steals. With Jalen Wilson off to a slow start following his suspension, Braun has taken another step on the offensive end and gives Self another consistent perimeter scorer." - ESPN.
