Peterson's Future Uncertain After KU's Loss

On March 23rd, Kansas Freshman star Darren Peterson left the door open on his college

future after the J-Hawks' second round lost to St. John's on Sunday.

Despite a strong 20-point performance, Kansas fell on a buzzer-beating layup by St. John's

Dylan Darling.

Peterson, who dealt with injuries and cramps all season, hinted he might return beneath

the chat with his family first.

When healthy, Peterson shown brightly for Kansas, showing why he's one of the top young

talents at basketball.

His efforts could overcome the team's defensive struggles in that final game, ending their

tournament run early.

Fans and scouts see Peterson as a surefire prospect, with his skills far outpacing what

most college programs offer.

A full healthy season, with the real J-Hawks supporters, but his ceiling points straight

to the NBA.

Mock drafts now project him as the number two overall pick to the Wizards next year.

Some image and likeness deals in college, pale against those massive rookie contracts

waiting in the pros.

Peterson's next steps will shape his path, but the basketball world eagerly awaits wherever

he lands next season.
