ASU Basketball: Back to Guard U?

Arizona State basketball’s renaissance under coach Bobby Hurley has taken many forms in his five years in Tempe, as the program has slowly transitioned from Pac-12 bottom-dweller to perennial Tournament contender with Hurley at the helm. The on-the-court product has undergone dramatic improvement in the past half-decade, with the team’s play continuing to more closely mirror Hurley’s preferred style as he works to integrate recruiting classes that best execute his overarching goals.

Possibly the purest implementation of Hurley’s vision was achieved two seasons ago, when the Sun Devils peaked at number three in the country on the backs of star senior guards Tra Holder and Shannon Evans.
