Report: Utah Valley transfer Fardaws Aimaq interested in Arizona

One of the key characteristics of Arizona men’s basketball in Tommy Lloyd’s first year was the Wildcats’ unrelenting size.

Arizona’s average height of over 6-foot-6 made the UA the second-tallest team in the country behind Florida State, according to KenPom.com.

It’s not surprising, then, that the Arizona coaching staff is interested in one of the biggest players in the transfer portal, Fardaws Aimaq of Utah Valley.

Jeff Borzello of ESPN reports that the 6-foot-11, 245-pound Aimaq is focused on Kentucky, Gonzaga, Texas Tech, Washington, Houston, Arkansas, Iowa, Arizona and Texas.
