AJ Storr has had a rocky start to his time as a Kansas Jayhawk. Struggling to adjust to his new role and often showing visible frustration, Storr’s body language throughout the season hinted at someone who wasn’t happy with his situation. But tonight, something clicked, and the difference was unmistakable.

He was referring to injured senior forward KJ Adams who dislocated his shoulder in Wednesday’s loss at Iowa State. Adams missed Saturday’s game versus K-State and is expected to miss his second straight game Wednesday at TCU. KU coach Bill Self has said Adams’ status will be a “week-to-week” decision.

KU’s Hunter Dickinson and TCU’s Trazarien White went for a rebound off a Rylan Griffen 3-point miss with KU up 47-46 in the second half. Both players refused to release the ball in an epic battle for possession, the players stumbling toward the TCU student section. A technical foul was called on both Dickinson and White.

AJ Storr struggled during his limited minutes vs Arizona State, but days later at Cincinnati proved to be more like the player he’s capable of being.
