Bet.com predicts Arizona will win the conference tourney and capture a No. 4 seed to the NCAAs.
Teamrankings.com gives a breakdown of the odds of each team to win the Pac-12 tourney. Washington has a 3.1 percent chance of winning, according to the website. Arizona is at the top of the list at 33.2.
The BetOnline Sportsbook has also established the Wildcats as the favorites.
