Arizona’s decision to add Avery Johnson’s Alabama Crimson Tide basketball team to its 2017-18 home schedule, while not a must-see event, is apt to be Arizona’s top nonconference home game. Bama was 19-15 last year but returns its three leading scorers from a club that beat Final Four entrant South Carolina in four overtimes. UConn, which is also on the UA’s home schedule, should be better than last season’s squad. The Huskies return three double-figure scorers.
