Arizona Wildcats consider additional signings for upcoming basketball season
Summary

Arizona head coach Tommy Lloyd is contemplating one or two more signings to finalize the roster for the 2026-27 season. The Wildcats recently saw key players from last season depart, including Brayden Burries and Koa Peat, while also losing depth to transfer. Despite these losses, the roster remains strong outside of the power forward position, which remains unfilled. Lloyd expressed confidence in the existing players, such as Ivan Kharchenkov and Motiejus Krivas, but is actively seeking a suitable power forward option, with time running short in the recruiting cycle.
