Kansas’s paint-anchoring force with elite rim protection
Jackson is a true backline eraser: in her Kansas career she averaged 12.4 points, 10.4 rebounds and 3.0 blocks per game, and in the 2023 season she was among the nation’s top shot-blockers with 3.1 blocks per game while also setting Kansas’s career blocks record[14][5]. She’s a 6-foot-6 center who impacts winning with physicality, rebounding, and defensive intimidation rather than flash, and reports consistently praised her motor and emotional edge—she plays with a little extra bite, which is exactly what you want in a postseason big[7][12].
