A former Kansas State men’s basketball All-American returned to Manhattan ahead of the latest Sunflower Showdown.

Through the collective Wildcat NIL — which aims to enhance name, image and likeness opportunities for K-State student-athletes — Michael Beasley held a meet-and-greet Saturday at Rockin K’s to chat with fans and sign autographs. He also sold some of his “We Them Ones” merchandise at the event.

Beasley said it felt good to return with a lot of old memories coming back, and he felt déjà vu driving down some of the streets.
