Arizona enters their tenth season under Head Coach Sean Miller, who has led the team to six consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances since 2013.

The Wildcats will have to fill the roles of their entire starting five, looking first to a list of strong returners led by Dylan Smith, the top returning scorer who boasted a 40 percent three-point field goal percentage in Pac-12 play last season, ranking him tenth overall in the conference.

A strong incoming freshman class includes Devonaire Doutrive, a top ten prospect for the state of California, and Brandon Williams, a consensus top 40 recruit for the class of 2018 who averaged 24.7 PPG as a senior, and was named the Los Angeles Daily News 2017-18 Player of the Year.

A solid set of newcomers is poised to make an instant impact for the Wildcats, including Chase Jeter, who sat out last season after transferring from Duke. Graduate transfer Justin Coleman is sure to add to the team's frontcourt after finishing last season with 210 assists, which led the All-Southern conference and were the second most in Samford University program history.  

Arizona will tipoff Maui Jim Maui Invitational tournament play against Iowa State on Nov. 19. ESPNU will televise the contest, which is set for 8 p.m. CT.
