Back on Jan. 15 – the last time Gonzaga faced Washington State – Braden Huff unexpectedly arrived in Pullman with crutches, which was followed by the team making the announcement fans were all afraid to hear: the star forward would miss 4-8 weeks with a left knee injury sustained in practice.

Huff has missed the last seven games for Gonzaga, a stretch which the team went 6-1 with the lone loss coming at the Chiles Center against the Portland Pilots last Wednesday.
