Courtney Ramey, an Arizona basketball player, has been suspended for his first three games with the Wildcats for breaching NCAA rules by playing basketball. Ramey, a Texan transfer, will be suspended for the first three games of the season after participating in a non-certified pre-draft camp last spring. Ramey lost an appeal for taking part in the seniors-only Portsmouth Invitational in Virginia last April, according to the school. In No. 8, Ramey will be allowed to play. On Tuesday, 18 Arizona will face Western Oregon in a exhibition match, but will need to miss games against Nicholls, Southern, and Utah Tech. The Portsmouth Invitational was intended for seniors who had discarded their college eligibility, but Ramey's participation was a little bit of a grey area, since the NCAA gave players an extra COVID-19 year. Due to COVID-19 concerns, the camp was not active for the past two years.
