Mandatory Credit: Stan Szeto-Imagn Images \[/caption\] SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – Mark Few’s message to his team all season long has been that ‘every dog will have its day’. When Braden Huff, Gonzaga’s star forward, was sidelined in the middle of January with a left knee injury, the significance of that motto increased substantially. Huff’s running mate in the frontcourt, Graham Ike, was expected to and has held things down from a production standpoint. But for a period, the Bulldogs struggled to find consistent offense from those alongside Ike with Huff on the bench, lacking the balance needed to truly threaten teams in the half-court. Now continuing to build off strong performances, the Zags (26-2, 14-1) are getting welcome contributions from several members on the roster game-over-game, most recently disposing of San Francisco (15-14, 7-9) 80-59 to extend their winning streak to four. Even with Ike scoring 22, his eighth straight game of eclipsing 20 points, punishing the Dons who dared him to knock down open mid-range jumpers – and he obliged – the story was about those around him, who provided enough to leave the Chase Center with a blowout victory. It began with a change, as Few swapped his starting point guard spot, giving the nod to the true freshman Mario Saint-Supéry over Braeden Smith. Joining Ike, Emmanuel Innocenti, Jalen Warley, and Adam Miller, Saint-Supéry’s insertion created the 11th different starting five combination this season for the Bulldogs. Although he started for the first time in 14 games when GU played Oregon on Dec. 21, Saint-Supéry has played the bulk of the minutes as the team’s point guard despite being on the bench when the ball is tipped. He continued to play at a high level, dropping 14 points with six rebounds, four assists, two steals, and a block versus USF, impacting the game at both ends. The lone stretch during the contest where the Dons gained some momentum, an 11-0 run in the first half, was when Smith came in for his first stint. After two minutes, Saint-Supéry was promptly placed back onto the floor, and Gonzaga never looked back. “I thought Mario was really, really solid. We played him heavy minutes tonight, and I thought he did a really nice job. Made his shots and was pretty good on the defensive end,” Few said. “He’s been playing good in big moments, just trying to reward him a little bit,” he said on starting the Spaniard. Saint-Supéry was one of four Bulldogs to finish in double figures, as defensive-minded wings Innocenti and Warley added 12 and 11 points, respectively, in the win. In Innocenti’s case, a trend continued of him being opportunistic and aggressive offensively, picking his spots when to take a high-percentage look, particularly when it comes to off-ball movement. The Ivorian attempted the second-most field goals on the team (11) behind Ike, while grabbing eight rebounds and posting four steals. “\[His\] defense has been great, but he’s finding timely baskets off cuts, off smart spacing, hitting some threes. But also making plays that’s helping us go from defense to offense,” Few explained. “I’m trying to get easy opportunities, easy buckets to get me going and feel the game out a little bit better,” Innocenti shared on his recent offensive uptick. Not far behind from joining that 10+ scoring club in the game were Miller (nine points) and Davis Fogle (eight points). A few of these guys with standout nights scoring-wise might be currently punching above their weight, but when they are this effective offensively, it makes a world of difference on the team’s potential. The Zags’ rotation has certainly evolved over the season, even when taking Huff’s absence into account. Steele Venters, who is coming off back-to-back season-ending Achilles and ACL tears, logged a ‘DNP’ against USF after seeing his minutes dwindle over time while not returning to form as the sharpshooter GU hoped for. Smith might not be far behind him on that trajectory, as Few has experimented with short spurts of no point guard on the court, with Warley doing the honors, handling the ball primarily in those instances. Fogle couldn’t check into non-garbage time earlier in the year tick due to several more-experienced teammates playing ahead of him, but he has since developed and matured over the course of his freshman season to now see more increased meaningful action. Recently, Few said of Huff, “We said four to eight weeks, it’ll be at least eight. He’s still on crutches; we’ll get him off crutches here in a little while. As that progresses, we’ll see how it’s going. He’s a long way away from getting back, but hopefully. Who knows.” Gonzaga has proved it can hang defensively with just about anyone, leaving the program with a high floor this season, no matter if Huff suits up again or not. But if the 6-10 redshirt junior won’t make his return to the floor until the start of the NCAA tournament or later, consistent offensive contributions from the Bulldogs’ supporting cast, as they’ve given over the past week, would certainly make up for missing an all-conference player such as him.
