Florida State Forward, "5-in-5" Transfer Chauncey Wiggins Commits to Gonzaga

Landing their second commitment from a “5-in-5” player in as many days, the Gonzaga Bulldogs made an intriguing addition to their frontcourt late on Thursday.

6-10 forward Chauncey Wiggins, who played his senior year at Florida State, will transfer to the Zags for his fifth and final collegiate year. He brings an interesting dynamic to GU’s frontcourt as a floor stretcher, while also possessing outlier length akin to some wings on the Bulldogs’ roster last season. Wiggins’ announcement makes the program’s fourth transfer portal addition of the offseason, and it follows Dayton guard Javon Bennett committing to the program, leaving four official spots open in Spokane.

On Wednesday morning, a Georgia judge granted an injunction to 30 student-athletes from the Class of 2022 seeking a fifth collegiate season, one of them being Wiggins. Less than 48 hours later, he committed to Gonzaga, placing another dynamic piece in one of the best frontcourts in the country.
