Kansas player Hunter Dickinson thrown out for kicking Duke’s Maliq Brown in the head.

Las Vegas – In a high-stakes matchup on Friday night, Kansas center Hunter Dickinson faced ejection during the second half of the game against No. 11 Duke. The incident occurred when Dickinson kicked Duke’s Maliq Brown in the head after both players were vying for a rebound.

Initially, Brown was charged with a personal foul for backing into Dickinson. However, the situation escalated when officials assessed Dickinson with a flagrant-2 foul due to the kick, resulting in his immediate ejection from the game. After the incident, Dickinson lingered on the bench with his teammates before ultimately being escorted off the playing court.

Prior to his dismissal, Dickinson had been a key player for Kansas, contributing an average of 17.8 points and 10.4 rebounds per game. At the moment of his ejection, the Jayhawks were leading Duke by a narrow margin of 57-55.

This incident will certainly be a topic of discussion as the season progresses and can impact team dynamics moving forward.
