Gonzaga Bulldogs forwards Brandon Clarke and Rui Hachimura are two of the 30 players named to the Naismith Player of the Year Award midseason list. Their presence makes Gonzaga one of seven schools to have two players on the watch list.
Hachimura is the leading scorer at 20.2 points per game on the best offense in the nation. Clarke is shooting a staggering 68.8 percent from the floor, the best mark in the nation, and is one of the better shot blockers in college hoops. Combined, the two players give Gonzaga one of the best frontcourts in the nation.
