MANHATTAN — Kansas State basketball will publicly unveil its 2024-25 roster on Tuesday night in a preseason exhibition against Division II Fort Hays State at Bramlage Coliseum.
Jerome Tang enters his third season as K-State coach and has a 45-25 overall record. The Wildcats return just three players from last year’s team that went 19-15 and lost to Iowa in the first round of the National Invitation Tournament.
Of The Wildcats’ three returning players, only super-senior forward David N’Guessan is expected to start. Transfers Dug Jones (Michigan), Max Jones (Cal State Fullerton), C.J. Jones (Illinois-Chicago) and Coleman Hawkins (Illinois) are the other projected starters for the exhibition.
Fort Hays State is coached by Mark Johnson, who starts his 24th year with the Tigers and has a 451-220 record.
K-State and FHSU have met four times previously in exhibition games with the Wildcats winning all three. The most recent was a 79-56 K-State decision in 2017.
