"Jojo can be as good as he wants to be," Black said earlier in the year. "It's my job to help him mature in his game, understand a couple of things and just help him with the little things on the court to make him that much better of a player."
Since then, Embidid has exploded on the court and in the national conversation, where the pundits who boasted about Andrew Wiggins being the number one overall pick in the NBA draft are starting to say the same things about the freshman from Cameroon.
The Jayhawks look to float more freely when Embid is on the floor and his finishing ability seems to improve with each shot he takes.
We were told the seven-foot center would see a lot of time right away. In each of the last two games Embiid played more than 20 minutes. Currently he's averaging 9.3 points and 6.6 rebounds per contest.
Things change. It doesn't mean that Black is a bad player, or that he can't break out of this funk.
he can break out of this mine.
Still, if Self is going to mix up his starters again, no one could blame him for inserting Embild.

the MLS Cup on Saturday. It took 10 rounds of penalty kicks for Sporting Kansas City to defeat Real Salt Lake at Sporting Park. This was Kansas City's first professional sports title since 2000.
The game got off to a rough start. Sporting midfielder Oriol Rosell was substituted out in the eighth minute for Lawrence Olum. This substitution was made due to injury and was the earliest substitution in MLS Cup history. The opening minutes of the game were slow due to injuries and large stoppages of play.
"Half of the field was completely frozen." Sporting head coach Peter Vernes said. "It was almost unplayable."
Both head coaches had similar complaints about the field. But like Vermes said, "That's the beauty of sports, both teams have to play in it."
The first half did not have a lot of highlights. In the 29th minute,
