Kansas vs Gonzaga Preview
The Zags will likely be a group on a mission this season. Gonzaga was primed to make what looked to be the school’s best run at a national championship last season, winning 26 games, and then the coronavirus pandemic hit. Now, they’re looking to pick up where they left off.
“It’s a great honor to be selected No. 1,” Gonzaga coach Mark Few said, via the Spokesman Review. “We understand that it is more a reflection of what our program has accomplished over the years and hope to play up to that standard as we start our season.”
Gonzaga scored 87.4 points a game last season, while allowing 67.8. The Bulldogs lost All-American Filip Petrusev, but it could be Timme time for Gonzaga. Along with Corey Kispert and Jalen Suggs, Drew Timme should be a focal point of the offense this season after netting 9.8 points per contest as a freshman in 2019. The Bulldogs will be going up against a Kansas team that averaged 74.6 points a game last year.
The Jayhawks will have Marcus Garrett and Ochai Agbaji back for another season, and the group also added Bryce Thompson and Tyon Grant-Foster, the latter of which is a junior college transfer.
Garrett told the media leading up to the game that he and his teammates are ready to hit the court after a long and unconventional offseason. “I feel like we’re ready,” Garrett said. “We’ve been practicing a long time. I think that we’re finally tired of playing against each other. We’re just ready to go out there and compete.”
Garrett also noted that he was relishing his new role as one of the team’s leaders, and he said his role would include being a voice of calmness and reason. “Let the young guys know there’s going to be turnovers, there’s going to be ups and downs in a game. I just feel like if we stick to the scouting report and have a level head throughout the game, we should come out with a win.”
“[Gonzaga] is good,” Kansas coach Bill Self said this week. “But the thing about it is it’s a different team. You had three legitimate NBA-caliber guys. They played through their bigs a lot last year. Of course, their perimeter is really, really good. I love their personnel. … This is a loaded team.”
