Sean Miller’s teams are usually known for their defensive prowess,* but the 2020-21 squad does its best work on offense.
The Arizona Wildcats rank 14th in the country in KenPom’s adjusted efficiency metric, which accounts for offensive efficiency and strength of schedule. That is the highest they have ranked since the 2014-15 Elite Eight squad.
If you prefer more traditional metrics like points per game, this is Miller’s third-highest scoring team at Arizona (80.0 PPG), only behind the 2017-18 and 2014-15 squads.
Unlike those teams, which featured future first round NBA draft picks like Deandre Ayton and Stanley Johnson, the current squad does not have a bonafide star or future lottery pick.
