Jersey: 2 Position: F
Age: 23 Height: 6-10 Weight: 235
Hometown: Richardson, Texas, United States
Birthdate: Sept. 9, 2000
Bio: Last name pronounced Timmy. Averaged 27.7 points, 17.9 rebounds and 4.3 assists at J.J. Pearce High and helped team advance to second round of state tournament. No. 43 in 247sports’ composite rankings, highest of GU’s six incoming freshmen. Nominated for 2019 McDonald’s All-American game.
Sr. Scouting report: Two-time All-American instantly became a preseason national player of the year candidate when he announced his decision to return to school less than an hour before the 9 p.m. PT deadline on June 1. Needs 675 points – an average of 19.8 points if the Zags play at least 34 games – to surpass Frank Burgess for Gonzaga’s career scoring record and already owns school records for NCAA Tournament points scored, field goals made and free throws made. Was considered a potential late second-round draft choice last season and will need to work on perimeter shooting and become stronger defensive presence to ensure he’s picked up in 2023 NBA Draft.
Jr. Scouting report: Projected to be the country’s top returning big man – and top returning player, according to some – after breakout sophomore season. Has an opportunity to climb up NBA Draft boards is he can improve his perimeter shooting.
So. Scouting report: Timme elevated his game in his second year, moving into a starting role as a volume-scoring rim runner with a variety of old-school post moves. Led the WCC in scoring and led GU in rebounding with 19.0 points and 7.0 boards per game. Was a breakout star at the NCAA Tournament where he scored 119 total points, including 100 in a four-game stretch against UCLA (25), USC (23), Creighton (22) and Oklahoma (career-high 30). Earned Karl Malone Award for nation’s top forward, was named to All-NCAA Tournament First Team and nabbed Second Team All-America honors from Sporting News and Sports Illustrated.
Fr. Scouting report: Named to the WCC All-Freshman Team after appearing in 33 games and averaging 9.8 points and 5.4 rebounds. Led the team in shooting at 62.1% and was on the WCC All-Tournament Team.
