Arizona Wildcats guard Justin Kier (5) catches the ball while Arizona State Sun Devils head coach Bobby Hurley reacts to almost getting hit in the face with the ball during the first half of their game at Desert Financial Arena, 600 E. Veterans Way, in Tempe, Ariz. on Feb. 7th, 2022.

Arizona will open Pac-12 Tournament play Thursday against the winner of a first-round game between No. 8 seed ASU and No. 9 seed Stanford on Wednesday in Las Vegas.

ASU beat Stanford 65-56 on Saturday but couldn't move up beyond the No. 8 spot because Washington State won at Oregon. Stanford had alreday been locked into the No. 9 seed.

Arizona's quarterfinal game is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. Arizona time on Thursday and be televised on the Pac-12 Networks. If they win that game, the Wildcats would play a semifinal game on Friday at 7 p.m., also on Pac-12 Networks.

The championship game is scheduled for Saturday March 12 at 7 p.m. on Fox.
