TUCSON (KGUN9)- The sixth sense off the bench this season has no doubt been senior Kevin Parrom.

"I think I've been playing really well in that sixth man role and i love bringing that spark off the bench that's just been me since I've been here," says Parrom.

Head coach Sean Miller couldn't agree more, going so far to say that Parrom is a main reason why the team sports a perfect record.

"He's returned to form and his play in Hawaii and some of the big plays he's made, that's a big reason why we're undefeated right now, " says Miller.

The stats prove that Parrom has been a big contributor for the Wildcats this season.  He leads the team in three point percentage and is Wildcats fourth leading rebounder, adding to that that he holds the team's best assist-turnover ratio.

"I mean he's instant offense with his shooting ability, he provides that needed spark off the bench while getting the rebounds and defending," adds Arizona Guard Nick Johnson.

Parrom says, "We're 12-0 and i have nothing to complain about, I'm in the game when it counts and I don't care about not starting."

The native from the Bronx has overcome adversity and plans on improving this season, saying "the sky is the limit."
