2023-24 stats:
- 16.5 points per game
- 7.2 rebounds per game
- 1.0 assists per game
The Zags have had one of the more mediocre seasons compared to some of the other top-ranked teams in the tournament.
However, center Graham Ike has been a highlight of the Bulldogs’ season. Close to averaging a double-double, he is putting up 16.5 points and 7.2 rebounds per game.
Ike shoots over 60 percent from the field and nearly 75 percent from the line. He plays for nearly 24.1 minutes a game and has become a vital part of Gonzaga’s lineup.
Since transferring to the program from Wyoming, Ike has only seen his production levels go up and I expect that to be true for March Madness as well.
