The Arizona Basketball team wraps up an unusual and unprecedented 2020-21 season on Monday, with James Akinjo being instrumental to the teams’ success.

As the Arizona Basketball team (17-8, 11-8) walked off the floor victorious for one final time in McKale Center for 2020-21, it was former Georgetown guard James Akinjo that helped propel the Wildcats to the win, just as he has done many other times this season.
