Arizona basketball: Fouls, Turnovers key to beating Gonzaga

Sean Miller’s weekly press conference took place on Thursday as the Arizona Wildcats make final preparations for the upcoming tilt against Gonzaga. According to Coach Miller, the keys to an Arizona victory are simple, yet difficult:

1) Fouls - this Wildcats team has had a lot of what Sean Miller called ‘silly fouls’. The high number of fouls is a result of poor defensive position and rotation. Also, a lack of defensive pressure on the ball carrier is putting more pressure on the rest of the team defensively. As a result, the Wildcats have been hamstrung by foul trouble as well as putting the other team at the charity stripe.
