Ryan Nembhard has been ELITE in 2024, and the Gonzaga Bulldogs need it | WBB holds steady in AP Poll

The Gonzaga Bulldogs have looked outstanding the past two games, and much of the attention has gone to Anton Watson, Graham Ike, Ben Gregg, and Braden Huff for their performances against Pepperdine and San Diego. However, the biggest key for the Zags recent success, and the x-factor for their quest to get into the NCAA Tournament and Sweet 16 once more, is Ryan Nembhard. Nembhard is averaging over eight assists and shooting 50% from three in his past five games, and that level of elite point guard play is what Mark Few and the Zags need to keep the streak alive.Gonzaga is still not in the AP Top 25, but wins this week against San Francisco and Pacific could be enough to get it done.We close out the show discussing Lisa Fortier and the women's team, who remained at No. 17 in the AP Poll after blowing out LMU and Saint Mary's last week. What could change for them this week when they go on the road to face Santa Clara and San Francisco?Discord Server: https://discord.gg/CcSNerjWPmLink to national college basketball national podcast: https://linktr.ee/LockedOncbbhttps://linktr.ee/LockedOnZagsLocked on Zags - Part of the Locked on Podcast Network.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Athletic BrewingGo to AthleticBrewing.com and enter code LOCKEDON to get 15% off your first online order or find a store near you!
