What to watch for in Arizona’s exhibition vs. Chico State

The Arizona Wildcats will unofficially open the 2019-20 college basketball season Friday when they host an exhibition against the Division II Chico State Wildcats.

Tip off is set for 6:30 p.m. PT. You can watch the game on Arizona Live Stream.
