With a roster stacked with talent and future NBA draft picks, the Kansas men's basketball team is getting a head start on its pursuit of another Big 12 Conference title with a series of practices at home and games abroad this summer.

The Jayhawks, who are looking for their NCAA-record 14th straight regular-season crown, are allotted 10 practices before traveling to Italy for a four-game and site-seeing tour next week.

All games can be seen live and will be archived on FloHoops.
