No.3 Return of Allonzo Trier and Rawle Alkins

With Trier staying for his junior season and Alkins deciding to return for his sophomore year, the Wildcats retain key leadership and experience. Trier and Alkins on the floor together will be quite the duo for opponents to try to handle due to the versatility of positions each can play.
