COACH HURLEY ON NUNEZ
"Austin has a tremendous upside. He's a lefty, he could shoot it, he can create, and he fits the mold of what I look for with our guards. He's very highly thought of in Texas, got a great family and a very athletic family. He loves the game, so I just have high hopes for him and what he'll bring here to Arizona State."
