Kansas’ Darryn Peterson Exits NC State Win With Quad Cramping, Status Unclear

Self now attributes the late exit to quad cramping, leaving his availability for Towson uncertain.

Overview

  • Peterson checked out with 2:15 left at NC State and did not return as No. 19 Kansas edged a 77-76 overtime win.
  • Bill Self said Monday he has not heard the word hamstring from medical staff and described the issue as quad cramping.
  • Kansas had no definitive status update ahead of Tuesday’s home game against Towson after the team did not practice Sunday.
  • Before exiting, the freshman guard logged a season-high 31 minutes and posted 17 points, five rebounds and four assists after previously missing seven games with a hamstring strain.
  • Self has highlighted Peterson’s frustration, multiple daily treatments and elite draft outlook as reasons for continued caution with Davidson next and Big 12 play in early January.
