It didn't take the Gonzaga men's basketball team long to find its groove against Baylor in its season-opening matchup Monday.

Fueled by some hot outside shooting, the Bulldogs raced out to a 20-point lead over the Bears, who struggled to generate clean looks down the end of the first half.

With Gonzaga in control, redshirt sophomore Braden Huff gave Baylor even more trouble off the bench. The 6-foot-10 stretch forward ended the first half with eight points, including a two-hand jam off a nice pass from senior guard Ryan Nembhard.
