The Pac-12 men’s basketball regular season slate wrapped up late on Saturday night — or early Sunday morning on the East Coast — with a quartet of games on Saturday. 2024 Pac-12 men’s basketball tournament should be plenty compelling with the seeding all set.
The middle of the Pac-12 table was muddled heading into Saturday, with seeds No. 5 through 11 still to be sorted out. But with four games in the books, the picture is now clear.
