Summary
Kansas basketball’s final hope to fill its roster might be Melvin Council Jr., a former Jayhawk who went undrafted but played in the NBA Summer League. Now suing the NCAA for an extra year of eligibility, Council moved his case to New York, where a judge has ordered the NCAA to appear and defend why he shouldn’t play this season. Though he hasn’t yet secured a temporary restraining order, if successful, he could return — but Big 12 rules and NCAA arguments about his professional exposure could block him from joining KU. It’s a long shot, but with no other options, it’s Kansas’ last-ditch effort to strengthen their team before the season starts.
