Koa Peat's spectacular debut, Brayden Burries' recent emergence and the consistency of Ivan Karchenkov have proven why the 2026 Arizona class was the highest rated in program history. Dwayne Aristode has three double-figure games in 2025-26.
Aristode, Burries, Karchenkov and Peat were the cornerstone players in the 2025 Arizona class and are half of the eight-man rotation Tommy Lloyd has primarily played this season. Burries leads Arizona, averaging 14.0 points per game and Peat is second, averaging 13.8.
Peat scored 30 points, making 11 of 18 from the field, eight of 12 from the free throw line, with seven rebounds, five assists, three steals and one block while committing only one foul and two turnovers in a scintillating debut as Arizona upset defending National Champion Florida 93-87.
