Alright, so you wanna know about them KU fellas playin’ in the NBA, huh? Well, lemme tell ya, that there Kansas team, they got boys all over the place in that big basketball league. I ain’t no expert, but I seen some things and heard some talk.
Them Young Guns in the NBA in 2023
See, this year, 2023, and even lookin’ ahead to 2024 and 2025, them Jayhawks, that’s what they call ‘em, they got a whole mess of players in the NBA. Eleven of ‘em, they say. Can ya believe that? Eleven! That’s more fellas than I got chickens in my coop, and that’s sayin’ somethin’!
- Some Newbies and Some Oldies
Now, some of these boys, they just startin’ out. Like that Furphy fella and that McCullar boy. They say they went to Indiana and New York, respectively. But they got banged up a bit, so they might be spendin’ time in somethin’ called the G League. Sounds like a minor league to me. Gotta learn the ropes, I guess. Ain’t nobody born knowin’ how to play in them big leagues.
But then ya got the fellas who been around. Like that Azubuike, big fella, strong as an ox. And Braun, he’s a scrapper, that one. And Wiggins, oh, that Wiggins, he’s somethin’ else. Been hearin’ his name for years. These boys, they ain’t rookies no more. They know the drill.
- Winning and Such
Them Jayhawks, they winnin’ too. Heard tell they won somethin’ called an NBA title, like a championship, I reckon. Won it three years in a row, they say, and four outta the last five. That’s a lot of winnin’, if ya ask me. Must be somethin’ in the water over there in Kansas, makin’ ‘em so good at basketball.
All Kinds of Players, All Kinds of News
It ain’t just about the big stars, though. They got all sorts of players doin’ all sorts of things. Some are guards, some are big men, some can shoot, some can rebound. Heard about that Dick fella and that Wilson boy gettin’ drafted. That’s a big deal, I hear. Means they got picked to play in the NBA. Good for them.
And the news, well, there’s always news about these fellas. Scores and schedules and stats and such. Who’s playin’ who, who’s winnin’, who’s losin’. Can’t keep up with it all, myself, but some folks sure do like to know all the details.
- Looking Ahead to the Next Season
And then there’s the next season, you know? The 2024-2025 season. They talkin’ about who’s comin’ back, who’s new. That Harris fella and that Adams boy, they say they’ll be back for KU. That’s good news for them Jayhawks, I reckon. But they also talkin’ about this here “transfer portal.” Sounds like musical chairs for basketball players. Folks comin’ and goin’, tryin’ to find the best spot for themselves.
What’s it all mean?
Now, I ain’t gonna pretend I understand all the ins and outs of this here NBA basketball. But I do know this: them Kansas boys, they’re good. They work hard, they play hard, and they win a lot. And that’s somethin’ to be proud of. They’ve got the players and the coaches, like that Self fella. He seems to know what he’s doin’, keepin’ them boys in line and gettin’ ’em ready to play. It’s a whole team effort, ya know?
So next time you hear about the KU players in the NBA, you remember what I told ya. They’re a force to be reckoned with, them Jayhawks. They got players all over the league, and they’re makin’ their mark. And that’s somethin’ that makes folks in Kansas puff up their chests with pride. Just like when my prize-winning pumpkin took first place at the county fair.
