Addressing the rash of departures from the Arizona women's basketball program and answering three key questions as an offseason of transition gets underway.
That means some Wildcats are leaving and others coming in.
Although this might be concerning to some, Arizona isn’t the only school losing players in the “wild, wild, west” world of the transfer portal. Reigning national champion South Carolina lost four players to the portal after last season, including Destiny Littleton, who ended up at the Pac-12’s USC , and Saniya Rivers, who ended up at North Carolina State .

This season, Esmery Martinez brought the Wildcats intensity, determination, points, rebounds and steals from West Virginia.
Pueyo, who was the team captain this season, will continue to lead by example. She always gives extra effort on the court, stuffs the stat sheet and guides her teammates, making sure they are in the right position.
