The Gonzaga Bulldogs have always been an offensive-oriented squad. In general, that has aligned with a fast moving offense that is a fan of high-low action, ball screens, and motion offense. The end result is something we are generally familiar with as Gonzaga fans—high scoring games.
This season, as we have watched the Zags sputter their way occasionally through this non-conference slog from hell, one thing has become rather apparent: the Gonzaga offense isn’t working the way it normally does.
The stats back that up across the board. So far, only three players are averaging double-digit scoring for Gonzaga, led by Drew Timme at 20.
