Gonzaga plays host to New Mexico State in home opener

Gonzaga prepares for New Mexico State in their Nov. 7 home opener, with the Aggies coming off a 73-66 win against Division II rival Western New Mexico. Without their top player Gabe Warren, who tore his ACL during that game, New Mexico State will look for scoring solutions from guards DJ Dudley and KK Robinson, as well as forwards Mark Lavrenov, Leopold Levillain, and Stephon Payne.

Gonzaga, as favored 21.5-point favorites, will rely on their frontcourt size advantage and fast-break opportunities to counter New Mexico State's struggles from beyond the arc. The Zags aim to dominate the offensive glass and capitalize on turnovers to seize early control of the contest.
