Kansas G Darryn Peterson (hamstring) ruled out for Las Vegas event
Peterson has missed three games and will sit out the team's next three in the Players Era Men's Tournament in Las Vegas.
Kansas (3-2) has games on Monday against Notre Dame, Tuesday against Syracuse and Wednesday against an opponent to be determined.
'We're not going to have Darryn in Vegas,' Self said at a news conference. 'Although, we have reevaluated, and he's right there close. But he hasn't quite done enough to put him in position to go out and play multiple games in a short span like that. So we're hopeful he's running and cutting and doing all those things while we're in Vegas, but not to the point where he's probably ready to play.'
The 6-foot-6 Peterson was the Naismith High School Player of the Year winner last season as well as a McDonald's All-American. He scored 21 points in a victory during his college debut against Green Bay on Nov. 3 and added 22 in a loss at North Carolina on Nov. 7.
The injury forced Peterson to miss Kansas' victories over Texas A&M-Corpus Christi and Princeton as well as a 78-66 loss to No. 5 Duke on Tuesday in New York.
Peterson is averaging 21.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.0 steals and 25.5 minutes.
