    What Zag players should have made NBA in your opinion?

    Ill say Casey Calvary. I just feel like if he was on the zags team of the last 10 years he is in the NBA.

    Mark Few said on “Gonzaga a decade of excellence” that he didn’t know how the NBA missed on Calvary. I’ll definitely agree with that one.

      I’d also probably say NWG. Very very efficient player.

            I think it was a complex situation, but I agree. I can’t figure out how hat didn’t happen.

                  Calvary for sure, but how about Jeremy Pargo ? The guy is still tearing it up overseas.

                    I've always thought Pargo was good enough and physical enough to play in the NBA.

                      Jeremy had a few chances to stick in the NBA... great effort guy... tough, physical... has some “clutch” genes...
                      But all you have to do is look at his career shooting numbers when he had those chances.

                          He finished the most recent season on the Jazz roster. I wouldn’t rule him out.

                              I was always curious "what" prevented Micah Downs from sticking in the NBA. Seemed like all of the tools were there. He is also one of the guys that I always felt was underutilized by Few. I watched him dominate vs UConn in Boston. As much as I hate to say this, maybe the problem is/was between Micah's ears?? But he is still playing overseas and earning a paycheck playing basketball. That is pretty cool in and of itself!!
