Arizona basketball notes: Parker Jackson-Cartwright to remain on bench, Chance Comanche embracing defensive role, and more

When the season began in November, Parker Jackson-Cartwright was a regular in the Arizona Wildcats’ starting lineup.

However, that all changed when, in the seventh game of the season, the point guard suffered a high ankle sprain that would sideline him for a month.

Jackson-Cartwright has been coming off the bench since he returned at the start of Pac-12 play, and don’t expect that to change anytime soon.

Arizona head coach Sean Miller said Monday that he does not expect to reinsert Jackson-Cartwright back into Arizona’s starting five.

“Our bench is important, this week was a great example,” Miller said at his weekly press conference.
