Arizona Basketball: Zeke Nnaji named to Oscar Robertson Trophy Watch List

Off to a hot start in the 2019-20 season, who would have thought that the best Arizona Basketball freshman thus far has arguably been Minnesota native, Zeke Nnaji.

Originally just a four-star recruit in the class of 2019, the No. 40 player overall in the class has been a pleasant surprise to fans!

Through the nine games played thus far, Nnaji is averaging a very impressive 17.1 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game, and has certainly been a big reason why the Cats are still undefeated this season.

Well because of the stellar play by the freshman Zeke, he is already garnering a lot of praise by the national media so far and rightfully so!
