TUCSON, Ariz. — Aari McDonald showed her former team what they are missing.
McDonald, who transferred from Washington after freshman season, scored nine of her 19 points in the third quarter when No. 12 Arizona pulled away from the Huskies for a 64-53 victory Friday night for the Wildcats’ 20th win.
McDonald was the Huskies’ third-leading scorer in 2016-17 behind Kelsey Plum and Chantel Osahor before leaving the program.
Last season, she was an honorable mention All-American after breaking Arizona’s single-season scoring record (890) when she was the nation’s third-leading scorer at 24.1 points per game.
