The Arizona Wildcats landed Samford graduate transfer point guard Justin Coleman on Friday (our commitment story can be found here).
Eligible to play immediately, the 5-foot-10 point guard averaged 13.5 points and 6.6 assists with the Bulldogs this season, shooting 44 percent from the field, 37 percent from 3, and 81 percent from the free-throw line.
The Birmingham, Alabama native adds much-needed talent to the point guard position. Arizona’s only returner at that spot is rising sophomore Alex Barcello, who hardly played in 2017-18.
Coleman, a former Top-100 recruit, actually spent the first two years of his collegiate career with the Alabama Crimson Tide before transferring to Samford.
