Paul Pierce is a proud Kansas Jayhawk, but his 2015 NCAA Tournament bracket doesn’t rock chalk.
The Washington Wizards forward did what pretty much every sports fan does this time of year and filled out a bracket before the Big Dance. While most people predict the undefeated No. 1 seed Kentucky Wildcats to emerge from the Midwest region, Pierce’s pick is both surprising and unsurprising.
Kansas isn’t your typical No. 2 seed, owing to its berth in Kentucky’s region. Sports books are giving bettors 40-to-1 odds the Jayhawks win the national championship.
