KUsports.com has the goods:
KU will play Arizona in the Maui opener, then meet UConn or Arkansas in Round Two, with Gonzaga, Maryland, Michigan State and Chaminade on the other side of the bracket.

"Start with Maui and add teams like Kentucky, St. Joe's, Nevada, California, Pepperdine ... no question it will be very challenging to say the least. We probably play more high-profile teams this year than last year," Self said.

The Jayhawks return just one starter from last year's 23-7 team, which wound up playing what was rated the most difficult schedule in the country.
