He achieved a first-half double-double and contributed 17 points and 20 rebounds in the victory over the Vols. Dickinson's impact has been lauded, with praise for his game-changing addition to Kansas and his potential as a National Player of the Year candidate.

Good bounceback win for Kansas. Just overwhelmed Tennessee around the rim. Hunter Dickinson with 17 and 20, KJ Adams had a really good second half. Jayhawks outscored the Vols by 14 in the paint. Jamari McDowell emerging as Kansasโ fifth guy will be interesting to monitor.
