Arizona basketball: Wildcats set to host Texas Southern on Wednesday night

Coming off their first loss of the season — a 69-65 defeat at the hands of the Butler Bulldogs in the Las Vegas Invitational championship game — the No. 16 Arizona Wildcats look to get back to winning ways Wednesday, when they host the Texas Southern Tigers in McKale Center.

It’s the first of a two-game week for Arizona with the second game being a run-in with the No. 8 Gonzaga Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon in Los Angeles.

Couple those two games with a busy academic calendar, and it puts the Wildcats (5-1) in a “high pressure point” of their schedule.
