Thomas Picks up Scoring in Defeat
Malik Thomas accumulated 23 points (8-16 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), one assist and one steal in 29 minutes during Thursday’s 86-68 loss to Gonzaga. Thomas came off the bench last Saturday against Pepperdine for the first time since December, but he responded well Thursday, posting his second-best scoring total of the year. He now checks in at third on the team in scoring at 11.7 ppg with just one regular-season contest remaining before the WCC tournament.
Ike Boosts Zags once Again
Graham Ike contributed 24 points (11-20 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and two blocks across 35 minutes during Saturday’s 70-57 win over Saint Mary’s. Ike’s game has catapulted to a new level of late, as he 20 or more points in seven consecutive contests, with Saturday being his second double-double over that stretch. His emergence is a massive reason Gonzaga heads into the WCC tournament having won 13 of 14, with Saturday’s win over Saint Mary’s representing the Gaels’ first conference defeat.
