Rui Hachimura named to Julius Erving Award watch list

Gonzaga Bulldogs forward Rui Hachimura is one of 10 players named to the Julius Erving Award late season watch list. The award goes out to the top small forward each year.

We will ignore the fact that Hachimura has hardly spent any time at the three spot this year and instead focus on what he has done well. Rui leads the Zags with 20.4 points per game and is second on the team with 6.4 rebounds per game. He is shooting 60.6 percent from the floor and 45.8 percent from three-point range. Hachimura is the major offensive focal point on a team full of options.
