Frontcourt duo powers Kansas women's basketball to season-opening win

Kansas women's basketball dominated down low in its 66-48 season-opening win over Omaha, powered by a masterful performance from starting bigs Jaliya Davis and Regan Williams. The frontcourt duo combined for 33 points and 17 rebounds. Williams had a block, while Davis added five blocks and two steals. This dominance down low proved essential as the Jayhawks finished the game, shockingly, without a single 3-pointer. Kansas’ interior strength held Omaha to just 10 2-point field goals and 48 total points.

Royals eye ‘authentically Kansas City’ concessions in deal with Delaware North

The Royals said that a reason Delaware North was picked to handle food and beverage operations at the team’s new downtown ballpark is that it “gives its general managers more leeway to adjust operations for their particular market,” according to Brian Kaberline of the K.C. BUSINESS JOURNAL. Royals President of Business Operations Cullen Maxey said it “happens to fit into a vision that we have going in, that we want to be authentically Kansas City.” The team had signed a series of extensions with current partner Aramark⁠ while settling on a site for the new ballpark. Maxey said that officials heard from Aramark as well as newer entrants in the field like Legends Global and Oak View Group. Maxey said that he views the concessions at the new ballpark “like a menu.” There will be “tried-and-true items, but also some flexibility to change, even season to season” (K.C. BUSINESS JOURNAL, 11/2).

Kansas basketball 2026-27 schedule prediction: Every KU game picked

LAWRENCE — Kansas basketball is coming into the season with the expectation of competing highly both in the Big 12 Conference, and nationally. Having coach Bill Self back to lead the Jayhawks certainly helps. So, too, does having a freshman guard in Tyran Stokes who is viewed as one of the top freshmen in the nation — someone who could be the No. 1 pick in the 2027 NBA Draft. And as long as fifth-year forward Trey Kaufman-Renn and senior guards Melvin Council Jr. and Tre White can remain eligible, conference success and a deep NCAA tournament run are each more than possible. The non-conference schedule will present its challenges, and the Big 12 slate won’t be any easier. There could be some growing pains through the early weeks of the season as the group continues to develop chemistry together. But there’s optimism about what’s possible in Lawrence this season, with a KU squad that’s entering tied for No. 18 in the top 25 of the preseason coaches poll. RELATED: What Duke basketball coach Jon Scheyer sees in Kansas’ Tyran Stokes With that, let’s take a look at some regular season schedule predictions for Kansas, which opens the 2026-27 campaign

Missouri suspends Jaylen Carey for basketball opener, SEC rules DePaul transfer CJ Gunn ineligible

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri will begin the basketball season without projected starter Jaylen Carey, who has been suspended for a violation of team rules, and DePaul transfer CJ Gunn, who has been ruled ineligible by the Southeastern Conference after signing a professional contract in May. Tigers coached Dennis Gates announced Carey's suspension Monday, the day before their opener against Cleveland State, while Gunn's ineligibility had been expected for a while after he played in the Canadian Elite Basketball League over the summer. Expectations are high this season for Missouri , which was the first team outside the AP Top 25 preseason poll . The Tigers brought in one of the nation's most heralded freshman classes, headlined by five-star prospects Toni Bryant and Jason Crow Jr., and surrounded it with a transfer class that includes Bryson Tiller of Kansas, Jamier Jones of Providence and Kennard Davis Jr. of BYU. Carey, a 6-foot-8 transfer from Tennessee, also is expected to be a key piece after averaging 7.4 points and 6.0 rebounds last season. Asked to elaborate on Carey's suspension, Gates replied: “Choose not to. I shared that one, and I usually don't share.” It's unclear whether Carey will be back
