Arizona Basketball

Fun in the Bahamas


Anthony Dell'Orso had a career-high 21 points off the bench, and Caleb Love bounced back from a two-game funk with 20 points to lead the 24th-ranked Arizona Wildcats to a 104-71 win over Davidson (4-1) in the first-round game of the Battle 4 Atlantis tonight in the Bahamas.

Trey Townsend scored 17 points and added four rebounds, while Tobe Awaka was a force under the bucket with 13 points and 10 rebounds for the Wildcats (3-2). Mo Krivas was 4 for 4 from the field, finishing with 10 points and four rebounds. Despite a leg injury early on, KJ Lewis hauled in 10 boards.

Arizona shot 56.5 percent from the field, canning 39 of 69 shots and 11 of 22 three-pointers, with Dell'Orso making 5 of 7 long-range shots. Love made 3 of 7 three-pointers on 7 of 13 shooting from the field and added five rebounds and four assists.

Arizona faces Oklahoma on Thanksgiving Day at 3 p.m.

Way to go, Wildcats!
