Arizona basketball: Allonzo Trier’s second-half outburst was ‘the difference’ in Wildcats’ win over Saint Mary’s

It’s never a good sign when your leading scorer has a goose egg in the scoring column at halftime in an NCAA Tournament game.

But that was life for the Arizona Wildcats on Saturday as they battled the Saint Mary’s Gaels.

Allonzo Trier missed all four of his shot attempts in the first 20 minutes, plus had two turnovers.

“I think Allonzo, he wants to play well so bad that today, and this really isn't his makeup, but today he didn't have the confidence that he usually has,” head coach Sean Miller said.
