Arizona will play three exhibition games during a 10-day tour of Israel and Abu Dhabi, but the basketball part of the trip is way down on the list of Tommy Lloyd’s priorities.
“It’s great for our team and great for the culture that we’re trying to build,” Lloyd said Monday. “I don’t think there’s any way but to bond on one of these deals.”
The team left Wednesday and were set to arrive in Tel Aviv on Thursday, spending six days in Israel that will include a trip to the Dead Sea as well as other significant points of interest in and around Jerusalem.
