Lauri Markkanenβs name wonβt be added to the UA Ring of Honor at McKale Center unless he spends 10 seasons in the NBA, as per current qualification standards. UnderΒ Dave Heekeβs new athletic administration, the UA might wish to reconsider some of the standards for Ring of Honor installation.Β Stanley Johnson, for example, averaged 13 points at Arizona in his lone season (2014-15) and was added to the list because he was the Pac-12 Freshman of the Year. Nothing against Johnson, but his career pales next to those such asΒ Anthony Cook,Β Matt MuehlebachΒ andΒ Pete Williams, who are not so honored.Β
Lauri Markkanen made big impact, but likely won't qualify for Ring of Honor
