Arizona assistant coach Mark Phelps will miss two games and forward Keanu Pinder will miss the Wildcats’ opener Friday against NAU because of violations of NCAA rules, the school announced.
Phelps will also be suspended for UA’s game against UMBC on Sunday and a total of five days. UA said his suspension is not related to the ongoing federal investigation into college basketball.
Pinder is scheduled to return Sunday, UA said, without mentioning if his issue was related to the federal investigation.
