2026 NBA draft stock watch: Which NCAA prospects are rising?
"Peterson's strange ride at Kansas came to a close Sunday, with the Jayhawks falling to St. John's at the buzzer and their season ending in the round of 32."
"When Peterson is firing on all cylinders, there's no better scorer in this draft. There's a feeling in NBA circles that we didn't see the best version of him this season."
"He averaged 20.6 points in his past nine games but shot just 38.8% from the field and 31.9% from 3-point range in the tournament."

Cameron Boozer, Darius Acuff Jr., Kingston Flemings, and Keaton Wagler advanced to the second weekend.
