NBA Wildcat Watch (Feb. 6-9)

From Tuesday through Friday, each time a former Wildcat hits the court, we will recap how they did and include a few highlights (if available). On Tuesdays, we’ll also recap what happened over the weekend, so you don’t miss the action. This will also serve as a discussion board. We will try to keep it updated as soon as the games are over, so check back often!

It’s time to get caught up with the NBA ‘Cats! There are also three alumni in action on Tuesday night, check back later to see how they did.
