The star big man may have put up a double-double in the loss to Houston, but his turnover woes proved fatal for his squad.

LAWRENCE, Ks. (AP) — Hunter Dickinson matched a career high with 33 points to lead Kansas past No. 24 Arizona 83-76 on Saturday. Zeke Mayo drilled five three-pointers and had 20 points while KJ Adams Jr. scored 12, including three dunks while the Jayhawks (20-11, 11-9 Big 12) built a 14-point first-half lead.

The Kansas Jayhawks are preparing for a tough road game against No. 4 Houston Cougars tonight, but a lot of the game's outcome depends on whether Hunter Dickinson plays.

Ugly social media posts directed toward Zeke Mayo didn’t cost KU Monday’s game at Houston, the Jayhawks coach said.

KU’s David Coit hit a 3-pointer to get the Jayhawks within 2 (61-59) with 20 seconds left, but Houston’s Emanuel Sharp hit both free throws after getting fouled. On the next possession, KU’s Dajuan Harris turned the ball over.
