LMU guard Brandon Brown leads the Lions
The Gonzaga Bulldogs host the Loyola Marymount Lions on Thursday in the McCarthey Athletic Center.
Point guard Brandon Brown triggers the Lions offense. The 5-foot-11 senior is a capable scorer (13.9 ppg) and content to set up teammates (5.3 apg, fourth in the WCC). He had 22 points and 11 assists in a narrow loss to Texas-Arlington, which handed Saint Mary’s its lone defeat.
Nigel Williams-Goss, Josh Perkins and Silas Melson could see time defending Brown, with the goal of limiting penetration and forcing him to take contested shots.
