Comes off bench in exhibition Hickman came off the bench and had 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two assists and two steals in Saturday's exhibition loss to USC.

Impact Hickman has been a starter the last two seasons for the Zags, so it was a bit surprising to see him come off the bench in this big exhibition game. That being said new wings like Khalif Battle and Michael Ajayi are also both deserving of starting spots like they did on Saturday. Hickman still played nearly 29 minutes, so whether or not he is starting seems irrelevant. Gonzaga is likely to play small with four guards for long stretches of games. They will open the regular season against Baylor on Nov. 4.

Slow start to NCAA Tournament Hickman posted two points (1-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes during Sunday's 84-81 win over TCU.

Impact It hasn't been the greatest start to the NCAA Tournament for Hickman, as he's logged just eight points on 3-for-10 shooting (0-5 3Pt) despite logging 59 total minutes in two games to begin the Big Dance. The Gonzaga usage is simply dominated by the likes of Drew Timme, Julian Strawther and Anton Watson, so there often isn't enough fantasy production to go around. Hickman still has an important role as the primary point guard, and he does this well, only committing 1.3 turnovers per game. However, the sophomore is set for one of his tougher tests all season against UCLA on Thursday in the Sweet 16.
