Adam Morrison on Gonzaga's Anton Watson: 'He legitimately has a chance to be an NBA player'

Watson tied his career-high of 32 points in loss to Santa Clara

The heart and soul of Gonzaga men's basketball team, Anton Watson has arguably been the program's most consistent player on both ends of the floor this season. Along with his typical hustle plays, the Spokane native is averaging career-highs in points (14.9), rebounds (7.4), assists (2.6) and 3-point field goal percentage (40.7%). He's been just as dominant defensively, averaging 1.6 steals.

Watson showcased everything in his repertoire in the Bulldogs' (11-5, 2-1 WCC) 77-76 loss to Santa Clara on the road, tying his career-high of 32 points while snatching six steals. From jump hooks to one-legged fadeaways, reverse layups and offensive putbacks, Watson did everything he could to will Gonzaga on the road, despite coming up short in the end.

Former Gonzaga All-American Adam Morrison broke down why he believes Watson has a legitimate shot at the NBA in a new episode of The Perimeter.
