James Akinjo wins second gold jersey with Arizona basketball

James Akinjo continues to show how much of an impact he’s had with the Arizona Wildcats since transferring from Georgetown, both in games and in practice.

In Arizona’s season-opening win over Grambling last Friday the redshirt sophomore point guard had 19 points, and then he backed up that performance with another strong week of practice, earning his second gold jersey for his efforts.

Akinjo is now tied with Jordan Brown for the most gold jerseys. Both have won two. Center Christian Koloko and Terrell Brown each have one.
