Kansas point guard Taylor suspended indefinitely

LAWRENCE, KAN. (AP) - No. 3 Kansas has suspended point guard Tyshawn Taylor indefinitely for violating team rules.

The school did not specify the violation.

Taylor has started 26 of 27 games for the Jayhawks, who were 25-2 overall and 10-2 in the Big 12 going into their game Monday night against Oklahoma State.

Coach Bill Self said Taylor would continue practicing with the team until he was reinstated.

Freshman Josh Selby and sophomore Elijah Johnson are the other point guards who are available.

Taylor has struggled replacing Sherron Collins at point guard. He is averaging 8.8 points and ranks third in the Big 12 with 4.7 assists per game.

Earlier this season, senior forward Mario Little was suspended for six games in connection with his arrest in a domestic disturbance. He was reinstated after receiving a diversion agreement on two misdemeanor battery charges.
