Kansas guard Brandon Rush may return from knee surgery to play against Washburn on Thursday.

"I'm ready," Rush, who had surgery for a torn ACL in May, said Wednesday. "It's up to coach and whatever he says. I'm dying to play. I told him that, and they know that I'm ready to play, but they just want to take their time and see how everything goes in practice. It's not my decision, but if it was up to me, I'd say go ahead."
