The latest on De Sousa, Preston: Still no news, but still getting closer
Kansas basketball coach Bill Self moments after Thursday's 75-54 victory over Stanford at Golden 1 Center said there was no change in the status of Class of 2018 big man Silvio De Sousa on Thursday.

Notebook: Jayhawks heading home for holidays
When the 14th-ranked Kansas Jayhawks left California late Thursday night following their final game before the start of Big 12 play against Stanford, they did so knowing two things about their immediate future. First, with Christmas just three days away and school and basketball grinding to a momentary halt, they get the next few days to kick back, relax and celebrate the holiday season with friends and family.

No. 14 Jayhawks pound Stanford in Sacramento
The Kansas basketball team jumped — and slammed and shot — out of its December Pac-12 funk Thursday night in Sacramento, Calif., where the Jayhawks rolled past Stanford, 75-54, a little less than two weeks removed from back-to-back losses to Washington and Arizona State. No. 14 KU established its dominance from the get-go, force-feeding big man Udoka Azubuike inside and letting him go to work in the paint. The sophomore center scored the first 10 points for Kansas (10-2) en route to a 24-point, seven-rebound night. By Benton Smith

The No. 14 Jayhawks (9-2) look to beat a Pac-12 team for the first time this month, having already lost to both Washington and Arizona State. Former KU guard Jerod Haase, now in his second season as head coach of the Cardinal (6-6), brings a wounded backcourt into the matchup, but still has junior big Reid Travis (22.2 points per game) to throw at Bill Self’s Jayhawks.
