00:00All right, Hunter Dickinson on the court tonight,
00:02so it's much lost basketball.
00:03Number nine, Kansas takes on number two, Iowa State.
00:06And the Cyclones have climbed all the way up
00:08as we see here to one of the top teams in the country.
00:11They're five and a half point favorites
00:13and a much higher total than the previous game.
00:15We just reviewed 144 and a half tonight in Ames.
00:19What do you like in this one?
00:21Well, I like Iowa State playing at home.
00:24The energy they'll get from the Hilton Magic.
00:27I think that the question is,
00:30can Iowa State keep the ball out of Hunter Dickinson's hands
00:33or can they get him into a situation
00:36where when Hunter touches it, he's not in dangerous spots?
00:39That's the key for Iowa State.
00:41Hunter Dickinson, seven foot one center,
00:43who has great offensive ability,
00:45inside, mid-range, sometimes deep.
00:48He's got the entire package,
00:50except he can be convinced on the right night
00:53to not wanna play.
00:54We've seen it on many occasions
00:57where you can get him disengaged.
00:59And that's Iowa State's job tonight.
01:01Maybe you do a little bit of that if you're the Cyclones
01:04by taking the ball away from the perimeter.
01:07Certainly not gonna do it to DeJuan Harris at the point,
01:09but maybe some of the wing players will give it up.
01:11But the key here is to make it a miserable night
01:15for Hunter Dickinson.
01:16If he can dominate inside,
01:18that's the one guy that they don't have
01:20a one-for-one matchup with at Iowa State.
01:23So that's gotta be Kansas's job
01:25to try to make it all about Hunter Dickinson
01:29in the mid-range, in the low post.
