Aari McDonald considered second-best player in Nation for 2020-21

I know it wasn’t too surprising to see just how dominant Aari McDonald was this past season. Initially breaking out in 2018-19, she’s been a consistently great player for some time now.

To recap from last year, she led the Pac-12 in scoring, was the conferences’ top defender and one of the Nation’s best players overall.

Helping lead the Wildcats to a 24-7 (12-6) record, she was poised to have a big March as Arizona was all set to play in the NCAA Tournament. However, that got derailed by the Corona Virus Pandemic, as the season was abruptly cancelled.
