With the 2019-20 Arizona Basketball season soon upon us, time to make five bold predictions for this upcoming season.

Arizona Basketball is going to have a much better season than last season. Let’s just get that out of the way. They have the experience and athleticism to do great things. What are those great things you ask? Well, I am going to make five bold predictions for the 2019-20 season.

To have a great season it requires the Wildcats win many games. It also requires things that can’t be controlled to go the team’s way. Such as getting the calls at the end of a game or getting the bounces to go your way or just getting lucky. Sometimes it can even come down not enough time on the clock. So much can happen in 40 minutes of play.

Things this team can control is producing consistently on both ends of the floor, limiting lapses on defense, finding ways to grind out hard-fought battles and taking advantage of their depth. Unlike last season, this time around the Wildcats can accomplish all of these things.

Taking into consideration things this team can control and can’t control, let’s get into the five bold predictions for this team starting with No.5.
