2025 Tournament PreviewCoach John Calipari got Arkansas back to the NCAA Tournament in his first year with the program in one of his more impressive coaching feats. Leading scorer Adou Thiero (15.6 ppg, 6.0 rpg) missed the last six games with a knee injury and second-leading scorer Boogie Fland (15.1 ppg, 5.7 apg) has been out since January with a hand injury. Thiero's status for the tournament is unclear, but Fland, a five-star freshman, is expected to play. Complementary players have stepped up, as sophomore DJ Wagner (11.1 ppg, 3.5 apg) took over the point and 6-10 junior Trevon Brazile averaged 12.0 points and 9.5 rebounds in Thiero's absence. The offense struggles at times, ranking 73rd in efficiency (per KenPom) and outside the top 200 in perimeter shooting, but the Razorbacks have a top-20 defense (per KenPom) and protect the rim with the nation's seventh-highest shot-blocking rate. Calipari has the chops to lead Arkansas to a few surprise wins.
