The performance of these three Kansas newcomers will be worth monitoring during the Jayhawks' exhibition against Louisville tonight.

Kansas basketball will go up against Louisville on Friday in a preseason exhibition. Here’s some more information on what to expect from this matchup.

LOUISVILLE – Behind 26 points from freshman sensation Darryn Peterson, No.19 Kansas defeated No.11 Louisville, 90-82, Friday evening in exhibition play at the KFC Yum! Center. More than 25 NBA scouts came to mainly see Peterson and he did not let them down in his unofficial KU debut.

Darryn Peterson and Flory Bidunga headline a new-look Kansas basketball team as the Jayhawks prepare for the 2025-26 season.

The effortless nature of Peterson’s game Friday was reminiscent of NBA superstar Kevin Durant’s lone season at Texas. At halftime he’d shot a staggering 6-for-9 (66%) from 3-point range. He had a much quieter second half, making just one shot in four attempts.

While the 2025-26 Kansas basketball team is very talented, it still has a few weaknesses that will contribute to preseason uncertainty.

PJ Haggerty is set to be the face of Kansas State basketball this season. He’s one of many players who have transferred multiple times since the NCAA allowed easier movement between schools in August 2022.
