Struggles continue against Zags Edwards recorded 14 points (5-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and zero assists across 34 minutes in Thursday's 95-70 loss to Gonzaga.
Impact It's the third consecutive game that Edwards has been held under 15 points, something that hadn't been done at all in the first seven games of the season. It's understandable that he didn't have his best shooting night against the top-ranked Bulldogs who feature a lot of size and length. Edwards should be able to bounce-back into his old form against Portland on Saturday.
