The Sacramento Kings selected Arkansas guard Darius Acuff with the No. 7 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, capping a season that saw him earn the Bob Cousy Award and lead the Razorbacks to a Sweet 16 run.

Arkansas' recent college stars are projected to be selected in the upcoming NBA Draft, with Acuff expected in the top ten, Thomas slated for the late first round and Brazile anticipated in the early second round.

The Razorbacks will play four exhibition games in the Bahamas this summer as part of the 2026 Baha Mar Hoops Summer League, using the trip to build chemistry and showcase a new-look roster.

The Razorbacks will welcome the Bulldogs in a preseason exhibition, marking the first announced non‑conference clash for Arkansas. The teams split their two all‑time meetings, and both programs bring notable storylines heading into the fall.
