For some, it's the most wonderful time of the year. For the 蜜柚直播 Wildcats, it's the most stressful time of the year.

Just like every other student in college, the Wildcats are in the midst of finals week so finding the balance between focusing on the season and squeezing out the last batch of exams before the holiday break is a challenge.聽

Fortunately for the Cats, they have an entire week to finish the semester when in the past, there was always a game in the middle of the week. This week, 蜜柚直播 travels to New Mexico on Saturday and will have sophomore Rawle Alkins available for his first road game. Alkins was out for 10 weeks with a broken foot injury he suffered in September.聽

Against Alabama last Saturday, Alkins played 22 minutes and contributed seven points. Wasn't a career night for Alkins and rightfully so considering he hasn't played full contact basketball in months.聽聽

Now with another week of practice under his belt, Alkins may return to the starting lineup against the Lobos, however Sean Miller said it's still up in the air.聽

Miller and freshman forward Ira Lee held a press conference Wednesday, find out what they had to say:
