The 2022-2023 Big Sky Player of the Year doesn’t have to move far from Cheney to Spokane. Eastern Washington’s Steele Venters is familiar with the Zags growing up in nearby Ellensburg and he will fit right in with Gonzaga’s fast-paced offense.
In the 2022-2023 season with the Eagles, Venters averaged 15.3 PPG on 45.7 FG% and 37.1 3P%. He looks to be the key sniper out on the wing for the upcoming season with the Zags. The catch-and-shoot game is definitely there for Venters and with his 6’7” frame, I see a lot of Corey Kispert in him.
