The wait for Zach Norvell was worth it. After sitting out a redshirt season to recover from knee surgery, the man they call “Snacks” staked his claim as next in a long line of talented scorers who have worn the Gonzaga jersey.
On a balanced squad that featured five players who averaged double digit scoring, Norvell’s 12.7ppg (third on the team behind Johnathan Williams and Killian Tillie), may not initially jump off the page. But it was clear by the end of the season that Norvell was up to the task of being a go-to option.
