Conference tournament winner
Rankings from AP poll

The school self-imposed a postseason ban for the 2020–21 season amid an ongoing NCAA investigation over an FBI bribery scandal involving a former assistant coach and agent between 2017 and 2018 hoping to avoid further punishment from the NCAA.[1][2] The ban included both the Pac–12 Tournament and the NCAA tournament.[3] On April 7, 2021, the school fired head coach Sean Miller due to allegations related to the corruption scandal.[4]

Previous season

The Wildcats finished the 2019–20 season 20–11, 10–8 in Pac-12 play to finish in tie for 5th place. They received the 5-seed in the 2020 Pac-12 tournament, where they defeated Washington in the first round and were set to take on USC in the quarterfinals before the remainder of the Pac-12 Tournament was cancelled amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
