The Arizona Wildcats return from Los Angeles for a one game stop at home before heading out east this week. Here’s a look at this week’s opponents:

University of California Irvine

Arizona welcomes the UC Irvine Anteaters Tuesday night at McKale Center for the second time in three seasons. UA beat UCI 71-54 in 2014 as the Wildcats struggled to get around 7-foot-6 Sengalese center Mamadou N’Diaye. UA was down three at halftime, but eventually tired out the big man and outscored UCI 45-25 in the second half.
