LAWRENCE, Kan. — The Kansas Jayhawks men's basketball team received good news on Tuesday, as big man Zach Clemence will be returning to Lawrence for the upcoming season.
Clemence had previously entered the transfer portal and then committed to UC Santa Barbara, but had not enrolled in any classes in Santa Barbara, making him eligible to return to Kansas.
The 6-foot-10 forward from San Antonio, Texas has played in 44 games while at Kansas, 20 in 2022-23 and 24 in 2021-22. As a sophomore in 2022-23, Clemence averaged 5.6 minutes per contest.
Clemence reportedly had a conversation with Bill Self last week and asked if he could return to Lawrence. Self says Clemence is on scholarship and will plan to redshirt this season.
