A High‑Profile Exhibition Slated for Fall 2026
Kansas basketball will open its 2026 preseason with a marquee exhibition against Duke, scheduled for October 25 at Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence.
Ticket sales kick off on July 29 for season ticket holders, with public sales following on August 26. Early in September, University of Kansas students who hold All‑Sports Combo passes will be eligible to claim their tickets.
Fans can also purchase limited‑edition game merchandise through Jayhawkoutfitters.com, the official online store of the program.
Preseason Schedule and New Additions
The exhibition is part of a broader non‑conference slate that includes matchups versus Pittsburg State and Louisville, giving the Jayhawks a varied early‑season test.
Among the newcomers, freshman guard Tyran Stokes has been labeled the top prospect of the 2026 class, adding excitement to the roster.
The team also welcomes a highly touted freshman class and several impact transfers, promising a fresh dynamic heading into the new campaign.
