Overview
- Kansas lists the freshman guard as expected to be available Sunday in Kansas City against Missouri after a hamstring layoff dating to Nov. 7.
- Self said Peterson practiced the past two days and will play only if there is no setback before tipoff.
- Peterson averaged 21.5 points with efficient shooting in his two appearances and is widely projected as a one-and-done lottery pick.
- The No. 21 Jayhawks are 6-3 and have leaned on Flory Bidunga, Tre White, and Melvin Council Jr. during Peterson’s absence.
- Missouri enters 8-1 and recently fell to Notre Dame, and the Tigers are without senior guard Jayden Stone due to a hand injury.
