Mark Few and the Gonzaga Bulldogs missed out on Nik Khamenia in the 2025 recruiting class, and appear to have pivoted to another 6'9 stretch four in Spencer Ahrens, who listed the Zags in his top six alongside Illinois, Washington, Boise State, Stanford, and San Francisco.

Ahrens' recruitment mirrors that of Ben Gregg, who was recruited heavily after the staff missed out on Paolo Banchero who went to....Duke, the same place as Khamenia. Both Gregg and Ahrens were late risers who stood out for their height and shot-making ability, and it's hard to ignore those parallels.

Gonzaga hosts Warner Pacific, an NAIA school in Portland, for its final exhibition game on Wednesday. We want to see the frontcourt get right offensively, and are intrigued by the playing time we might get for Jun Seok Yeo, Emmanuel Innocenti, Ismaila Diagne, and Gonzaga's five walk-ons.

Plus, catch up on former Zags making waves in the G League, including Jeremy Jones and Drew Timme, and celebrate David Stockton's impressive G League career.
