Arizona State’s Torian Graham flips off Arizona fans on his way to the locker room

We’re starting to think the Wildcats and Sun Devils aren’t best friends.

Arizona State and Arizona don’t like each other very much, and you could have figured that out even before Bobby Hurley’s “f------ Tucson” comment this week. Additional evidence: this video of ASU star Torian Graham giving Arizona students the double bird before the rivalry renewed on the hardwood Thursday night.

Graham is having a terrific season for the Sun Devils, leading the team in scoring at more than 18 points per game as a senior. We advise you read House of Sparky’s excellent feature on Graham from this week.

If nothing else, he’ll get one more shot at Arizona on March 4 when the two teams play in the regular season finale.
