Tommy Lloyd’s Arizona Wildcats reload with 18-year-old Montenegrin wing Maksim Brnović — could he be the missing link for another Final Four push? Andy Patton and Leif Thulin assess Brnović unique skill set, the potential shakeup of Arizona’s starting lineup, and the lingering need for a true four-man. The conversation weighs Ivan Kharchenkov’s role, the impact of last season’s late-game struggles, and whether Arizona’s latest international addition will deliver immediate returns.

Gonzaga’s Mark Few makes waves by landing French point guard Nathan De Sousa, adding experience and playmaking to an already NBA-caliber sophomore core. Patton explores how De Sousa addresses critical roster gaps as the Zags transition to the new-look Pac-12, while Texas Tech faces uncertainty with the addition of unheralded freshman Amari Barrett and questions about JT Toppin’s recovery. Which Big 12 contender is best built for a deep March run, and who still has major work to do?
