Kansas player Darryn Peterson requests early exit in Oklahoma State game

No. 8 Kansas defeated Oklahoma State 81-69, but star guard Darryn Peterson only played 18 minutes due to an injury concern, despite scoring 23 points, including 20 in the first half. Coach Bill Self expressed surprise at Peterson’s early exit, as he has struggled with injuries this season. With only five games remaining before the Big 12 tournament, Kansas hopes Peterson can regain full strength, especially with tough matchups ahead. The Jayhawks currently hold a 20-6 record, sitting third in the Big 12.
