Bruce Pascoe The Star's Bruce Pascoe breaks down the starting lineups, storylines and stats as the No. 17-ranked Arizona Wildcats host Nicholls in the season opener on Monday night.Radio: 1290-AM, 107.5-FMProbable starters People are also reading… ARIZONAG Micah Thomas How they match upThe series: Arizona has only faced Nicholls once before, when the defending national champion Wildcats beat the Colonels 99-60 at Sacramento in the first round of the 1998 NCAA Tournament.
Offensively, the Colonels shot only 32.1% from 3-point range last season but 54.5% from two-point range. While they have to replace Ty Gordon, the Southland Conference Player of the Year, they return first-team preseason pick Latrell Jones, a versatile forward, and second-team pick Manny Littles, an experienced big man. Overall, Nicholls is expected to be more offensively balanced this season.
“We’re gonna find out” how Henderson adjusts, UA coach Tommy Lloyd said. “As you get into games, that will be the best indicator but all in all, I’ve been really happy with Cedric, been really happy with the progress he’s made. We’re lucky to have him.”While Henderson will be making his debut for a high-major team, the Wildcats’ freshmen big men Henri Veesaar and Dylan Anderson will have to start their college careers against a team that could keep them on the move.
