Canadian Ryan Nembhard following in brother and Indiana Pacers guard Andrew with Gonzaga Bulldogs
The Aurora, Ont., native and his Gonzaga Bulldogs – the fifth seed in the Midwest Region – open March Madness on Thursday against the 12th-seeded McNeese State Cowboys. It will be the Bulldogs’ 25th straight appearance at the big dance, but it will be Nembhard’s first tournament with Gonzaga.
Nembhard transferred to Gonzaga after two years at Creighton, where he helped lead the Blue Jays to an Elite Eight appearance last season. He saw the move to the school in Spokane, Wash., as an opportunity to blossom at a major program, having witnessed his older brother, Andrew, enjoy much of his college success with the Bulldogs.
“Elite, elite point guards, slightly different in how they play, but both elite-level point guards and we know the importance of having an elite-level point guard.” “ started slow and then as the season went on, started to learn how to play more with each other and learn how to win close games. I feel like we’re just peaking at the right time … and I’m playing my best basketball at the right time.”“Ryan’s been huge, he’s fit in from day one. He’s a great competitor. He’s a winner, but he doesn’t have an ego,” Michaelson said. “His demeanour and his personality allowed him to come in and mesh really well with that group and he worked really hard at it.
