Previous season[edit] Main article: 2024–25 Gonzaga Bulldogs men's basketball teamThe Bulldogs finished the 2024–25 season 26–9, 14–4 in WCC play to finish in second place. As the No. 2 seed in the WCC Tournament, they defeated San Francisco and Saint Mary's to win the WCC Tournament. They received an automaic bid to the NCAA Tournament where as the No. 8 seed in the Midwest region, they defeated Georgia in the First Round before losing to Houston in the Second Round. This was the first time since 2014 that the Bulldogs failed to reach the sweet sixteen (not counting the COVID-disrupted 2019–20 season in which the NCAA tournament was not held).
