Christian Koloko’s breakout junior year was a huge reason Arizona dominated the Pac-12 and reached the Sweet 16 for the first time in five years. It also massively raised Koloko’s draft stock, something he’s now looking to cash in on.
Koloko announced Monday he was declaring for the 2022 NBA Draft, the second Arizona player to do so following wing Bennedict Mathurin.
The 7-foot-1 Koloko averaged 12.6 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.8 blocks per game for the Wildcats, tying the single-season school blocks record with 102.
