The day stated with good news for Sean Miller and Co. as Finland power forward prospect Lauri Markkanen verbally committed to the program.

T.J. McConnell weighing in from Philadelphia

Tollefsen’s day included winning the dunk contest with an under-and-up maneuver between the legs for the slam.

Anderson shows his finishing skills.

Smith finished with two assists and eight points in 20 minutes

Justin Simon tallied two steals in 15 minutes.

The highest profile freshman recruit Allonzo Trier contributed nine points on 4-of-9 shooting. Amazed that he missed his two free-throw attempts. Such a pure shooter.

Game ended with 20 of the 35 field goals made included an assist. Important early in terms of team play, being on same page, etc.

True elites have sold-out scrimmages
