As the Arizona Wildcats’ 2019 recruiting class has ascended atop the national rankings, one of its key additions is often lost in the shuffle.
That’s Cornell transfer Stone Gettings, who committed to Arizona last spring. The senior will graduate from Cornell this winter, join the Wildcats after Christmas break and begin practicing with his new team soon thereafter.
While not a five-star recruit, Gettings is a big addition — quite literally. The 6-foot-8 forward averaged 16.7 points and 6.6 rebounds at Cornell last season, shooting 49 percent from the field, 37 percent from 3 and 83 percent from the charity stripe.
