Zeke Nnaji expected to return to Arizona’s lineup next week, but Devonaire Doutrive’s status is unclear

The Arizona Wildcats were without two of their top players in Friday’s unexpectedly close 74-65 win over Chico State. Freshman Zeke Nnaji was held out with an ankle injury while sophomore Devonaire Doutrive was suspended after violating team rules.

Head coach Sean Miller declined to provide a timetable for Doutrive’s return, referring to a statement that called his suspension indefinite, but expects Nnaji to play next week when Arizona opens the regular season against NAU.

“He has an ankle sprain. I don’t think it’s very serious,” Miller said Friday.
