POINTS OF EMPHASIS
» The media’s preseason pick to win the Pac-12 regular-season title, second-ranked Arizona takes the court on Sunday to face Cal Poly Pomona in its lone exhibition contest before its Nov. 14 season opener.
» The Wildcats are 7-1 in exhibition games under Miller with an average scoring margin of +23.4 points in those contests; UA has won its last four exhibition games.
» UA is ranked No. 2 in both the AP and USA Today preseason polls, its highest preseason ranking since opening the 2002-03 season at No. 1 in both; the Wildcats have been ranked in 41-straight AP polls, including 21-straight weeks in the top 10 and 19-straight weeks in the top five.
» Arizona has 113 victories since the start of the 2010-11 season, the most in the Pac-12 and the 10th-best total nationally; three of the eight 25-wins seasons posted by Pac-12 teams in Sean Miller’s tenure belong to UA.
» UA is in the midst of a 21-game home winning streak, one shy of tying the fifth-longest in program history; the Wildcats lead the Pac-12 in homecourt winning percentage since 2010-11 and are 74-11 (.871) at McKale Center with Miller at the helm.
