Previous season

[edit]
Main article: 2023–24 Arizona Wildcats men's basketball team

The Wildcats finished the 2023–24 season 27–9, 15–5 in Pac-12 Conference play, winning their 18th and final Pac-12 regular season title and overall 1 seed in the Pac-12 tournament. They lost their semifinal match up against eventual tournament champion Oregon 68–75.[1] The Wildcats were invited to their 34th NCAA tournament appearance, receiving the number 2 seed in the West Regional. They lost in the Sweet Sixteen to number 6 seed Clemson 72–77.[2]

Offseason

[edit]

Coaching staff changes

[edit]

Former assistant coach Riccardo Fois accepted an assistant coaching job with the Sacramento Kings in the NBA. TJ Benson was promoted to assistant coach after spending the previous three seasons as a Special Assistant to the Head Coach/Recruiting Coordinator for the program. Ken Nakagawa was promoted to assistant coach after spending the previous three seasons as the Director of Advanced Scouting. Rem Bakamus was promoted to assistant coach after spending the previous three seasons as the Director of Player Development.[3]

Departures

[edit]

Due to COVID-19, the NCAA ruled in October 2020 that the 2020–21 season would not count against the eligibility of any basketball player, thus giving all players the option to return in 2022–23.[4] Additionally, any players who have declared for the 2024 NBA draft—including seniors, who must opt into this year's draft—have the option to return if they make a timely withdrawal from the draft and end any pre-draft relationships with agents. Thus, separate lists will initially be maintained for confirmed and potential departures.
