Bruce Pascoe This summer, each member of the Star’s sports team will assemble a list of the five most memorable Arizona games they’ve covered since joining the beat. This week, Bruce Pascoe will reflect on five UA basketball games.What went down: Center Christian Koloko had 22 points, seven rebounds and four blocks to lead unranked Arizona to an 80-62 win over No.
At the end, though, it was Koloko who was given the postgame microphone to dedicate the game to his mom, who had traveled from Cameroon to watch her son play over the weekend. And it was Koloko who picked up the Main Event championship"belt" and carried it out of the interview room.For one thing, Koloko was able to show off his skillset to his mother. “This was the first time she’s seen me,” Koloko said. “It’s just … I don’t know what to say.
By the numbers: Arizona hit only 4 of 21 3-pointers but ripped Michigan apart inside the arc by passing, cutting and opportunistically taking what shots or drives were there. The Wildcats shot 65.9% from two-point range, setting up 23 of their 33 field goals with assists. While Mathurin kept on playing as the star he was expected to be as a sophomore in 2021-22, becoming the No. 6 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft, Terry and Koloko also grew into draft picks. The three helped Arizona put together a season that exceeded all expectations of Lloyd’s debut: The Wildcats went 18-2 in Pac-12 play, with losses only in a Tuesday night COVID makeup game at UCLA and at rowdy, high-altitude Colorado.
Could he make the right decisions as the top guy? Could he get players mostly recruited by Miller to buy into a much-different coaching style, personality and philosophy? Could he help draw regular sellout crowds back to McKale Center?
