How to watch Gonzaga Bulldogs vs. Pacific Tigers: Live stream, TV channel for WCC men's basketball game
The Gonzaga Bulldogs return to The Kennel for a West Coast Conference bout against the Pacific Tigers.
Gonzaga (19-6, 9-2 WCC) seeks its fourth consecutive win after it pulled away for a 91-74 victory at Loyola Marymount on Thursday. The Bulldogs finished the game on a 19-3 run to outlast Will Johnston and the Lions, as the 6-foot-3 guard had 33 points and seven 3-pointers. Graham Ike had 23 points, 16 of which came in the second half, while Nolan Hickman had 22 points.
Ryan Nembhard (16 points and 11 assists) and Anton Watson (13 points and 11 rebounds) each had double-doubles and made key plays defensively down the stretch.
With the win, the Bulldogs improved their at-large hopes of getting into the 2024 NCAA Tournament. The latest ESPN Bracketology update from Joe Lunardi has Gonzaga as the last team to qualify for the 68-team field, with Saint Mary's (21-6, 12-0 WCC) projected to earn the league's automatic bid.
Pacific (6-21, 0-12 WCC) has struggled amid its 12-game losing streak. The Tigers' last win over a Division-I opponent came on Nov. 26 against Mississippi Valley State — which hasn't won a single game all season (0-24). Martindale Judson leads the team with 9.7 points per game and Donovan Williams adds 9.5 points and 4.6 rebounds per game.
Gonzaga struggled to pull away from Pacific in the first meeting in Stockton, California, before coming away with an 82-73 win on the road. The Bulldogs have won 20 consecutive meetings dating back to 2012.
