A whirlwind few days for Ochai Agbaji culminated Tuesday night with the Kansas junior dropping 19 points to help No. 6 Kansas sprint past TCU, 93-64, in Fort Worth, Texas.
In the roughly 72 hours that followed Saturday’s home loss to Texas, Agbaji twice encountered situations that nearly kept him out of KU’s latest victory.
The first came over the weekend, when Agbaji received what turned out to be a false-positive COVID-19 test after taking a rapid test.
