Kansas Basketball Lands Christian Reeves: A New Big Man for the Jayhawks

Kansas has secured its third transfer for the 2026 cycle, landing seven-foot-two big man Christian Reeves from the College of Charleston. The former three-star recruit, who played at Duke and Clemson, is set to join the Jayhawks as a potential starter at center, bringing his one remaining year of eligibility to Lawrence. Reeves, who averaged 11.1 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game last season, is expected to compete with incoming sophomore Paul Mbiya for the starting five spot, potentially filling the void left by Flory Bidunga. Kansas still needs one more frontcourt piece to support Utah transfer Keanu Dawes and ease the scoring load on Reeves and Mbiya. With Reeves on board, the Jayhawks are building a deep post presence for next year, setting the stage for another championship run under Coach Bill Self.
