It’s no secret that Gonzaga University basketball has made a splash in the NBA. Now, two high-profile NBA Zags will face each other at the mountaintop of playoff basketball.
An NBA Finals matchup between Oklahoma City and Indiana can mean only one thing for fans of GU hoops: either Chet Holmgren or Andrew Nembhard will become the fourth Zag to win an NBA Championship.
The two former GU standouts were teammates in Spokane as part of an elite 2021-22 Zag basketball team that featured five future NBA talents: Holmgren, Nembhard, Drew Timme, Julian Strawther and Anton Watson.
