Sean Miller opened his weekly press conference Tuesday by confirming that sophomore forward Emmanuel Akot is transferring from the Arizona Wildcats, as reported Monday by 247Sports.
“On Sunday after returning from our trip in the Bay Area, Emmanuel informed our coaching staff that he will not play the remainder of the season and intends to transfer at the end of the spring semester,” Miller said, reading from a prepared statement.
“We will continue to support Emman this spring while he’s here academically as a student. He’s an outstanding student, currently in good academic standing, and we want to ensure that when he transfers that that remains the same for him.
