Arizona men’s basketball earned a “W” against the College of Idaho in its first exhibition game Tuesday night. But it was only a small victory considering one star player’s eligibility is in haitus, one player is struggling with academics and another even retired.
Veterans Allonzo Trier, Chance Comanche and Ray Smith changed the future for Arizona basketball this season. Sure, the team will be able to depend on players like Dusan Ristic and Kobi Simmons, but a huge portion of the team is already unable to do its part for the team—and the regular season has yet to even start.
