Sonoran Hot Reads: Arizona reaches out to Corona del Sol's Saben Lee

An in-state product getting a lot of high-level attention

Corona del Sol has had a few big-time basketball prospects at their school lately, but one 2017 point guard's recruiting is starting to surge. Saben Lee, the consensus 49th-best PG in the country, picked up an offer from Louisville on Monday, and has garnered interest from the Arizona Wildcats. While UA hasn't offered him yet, Saben told Richard Obert of AZCentral "In my college decision, I look for a coaching staff I feel I have trust that they will develop me on and off the court, and an opportunity to have an impact right away." This will be an interesting guy to keep an eye on when the attention completely turns to 2017
