Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is a huge sports fan and an admitted basketball junkie. And when it comes to college sports, LeBron is perhaps the biggest Ohio State booster in the nation. However, there is one non-Buckeyes team that has caught his eye and the eye of most college basketball fans: the No. 1 ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs.
The Bulldogs have had great teams for the past few decades under head coach Mark Few and have gotten closer to reaching a national championship. This season, LeBron believes they have what it takes to do something special and he loves how tough of a team they are.
They tough!!! Love the way they play. Amazing pace on makes or misses, ball movement, some dogs and guys that just know how to play the game! And of course they beyond well coached! He’s the truth!! The shiznit

Gonzaga has been phenomenal so far to start the season, with impressive victories over No. 7 Kansas, a blowout over Auburn, and last night’s 87-82 win over a strong West Virginia team. They have another great challenge later this weekend when they face the No. 2 ranked Baylor Bears Saturday.
