Liam Lloyd, son of Arizona men’s basketball coach Tommy Lloyd, among walk-ons added to 2024-25 roster

Arizona has posted its complete roster for the 2024-25 season, and a new addition has a very familiar name.

Liam Lloyd, son of Wildcats coach Tommy Lloyd, has joined the team as a walk-on for his fifth college season. The 6-foot-5 guard comes to Arizona after spending the previous two years at NAU, which followed two seasons at Grand Canyon and means he’ll now be part of three of the state’s four Division I programs.

(No need to mention the one he’s skipped.)

Lloyd is one of three walk-ons added to the roster for 2024-25 along with fellow guards Jackson Francois—son of athletic director Desiree Reed-Francois—and Sven Jopmo. Francois spent two seasons as a walk-on at Missouri, where Reed-Francois was AD before taking the UA job in February, while Jopmo is a native of France who had an unofficial role with Arizona last season.

Also back for 2024-25 is guard Addison Arnold, who was on the team in 2021-22 before spending the past two years on an LDS mission, while guard Grant Weitman has returned for a fifth season after putting his name into the NCAA transfer portal.

All told, the UA roster features 20 players with 11 on scholarship, two below the maximum allowed.
