Koa Peat, Anthony Dell’Orso questionable ahead of Arizona-Baylor game

Arizona forward Koa Peat and guard Anthony Dell’Orso are questionable ahead of the No. 2 Wildcats’ matchup against the Baylor Bears on Tuesday.

Additionally, freshman forward Dwayne Aristode, who has missed the Wildcats’ last three games, remains out, according to Monday’s Big 12 player availability report. 

Peat has missed the Wildcats’ last two games due to a lower leg muscle strain he sustained against Texas Tech on Feb. 14. Arizona announced last Tuesday Peat would be reevaluated in a week due to the injury.

The Gilbert native is averaging 13.8 points (on 54.2% shooting), 5.4 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game this season.

Dell’Orso is averaging nine points (40.8% shooting), 2.2 assists and 2.1 rebounds per game. He is coming off a strong effort against then-No. 2 Houston where he scored 22 points off the bench on 8 of 14 shooting with four steals and three rebounds in the Wildcats’ 73-66 win against the Cougars. Dell’Orso briefly left the game late in the second half after appearing to hurt his ankle but later returned.

For Baylor, guard J.J. White, forward Maikcol Perez and center Juslin Bodo Bodo are listed as out, while guard Dan Skillings is probable.

Arizona-Baylor tips off from Foster Pavilion in Waco, Texas at 7 p.m. MST. The game will air on ESPN2.
