    Tony Wroten Enters 2012 NBA Draft; Are Huskies Better Off Without Him?

    Tony Wroten, UW's mercurial young point guard, announced yesterday his plan to hire an agent and enter the 2012 NBA draft, following teammate Terrence Ross' move to the pro ranks. The two departures seemingly leave the cupboard bare for Lorenzo Romar and Co. next year, but there's a chance Wroten's ... More >>

    Could This Season Be Lorenzo Romar's Best Performance as UW Basketball Coach?

    It has been a rollercoaster year for Husky basketball, with the team losing to the likes of South Dakota State on some nights, and trouncing talented teams like Arizona on others. And yet despite the inconsistency, it's possible to make the argument that this has been Lorenzo Romar's finest coaching ... More >>

    UW's Terrence Ross and Tony Wroten Have Serious NBA Potential -- If They Can Learn From Each Other

    Terrence Ross is a freakishly athletic swingman with a jump shot smoother than a foot of Mt. Baker powder. Tony Wroten is a turbocharged point guard with the height and court vision of Magic Johnson. Combine their skills and you have one heck of an NBA player.

    Abdul Gaddy Should Be Benched Immediately in Favor of Tony Wroten

    ​We've been nothing if not consistent on the topic of Husky point guard Abdul Gaddy. We said he was overrated at the outset of his freshman campaign; pronounced him a bust shortly thereafter; and advised him to transfer early last year, when he suffered a season-ending injury around the same t ...

    Terrence Ross Got Off Last Night in Husky Basketball Victory Over Portland

    ​UW steamrolled Portland last night, winning 93-63 to start the year 3-0. It was an impressive victory that included several highlight-reel dunks, assists, and blocked shots. But the real highlight came during the post-game press conference when sophomore point guard Abdul Gaddy inadvertently ... More >>

    Isaiah Thomas' Decision to Go Pro is Good for Everyone

    ​The early returns are in on Isaiah Thomas' decision to forgo his senior year at UW and enter the NBA draft. Shitty move by Isaiah, and shitty for the Huskies' 2011-2012 fortunes, say the likes of KJR's Mitch Levy and the Times' Steve Kelley. Allow me to be the voice of dissension here.

    UW Beats Arizona; Husky Hoops Legend Frank Guisness Approves

    ​With first place in the Pac-10 on the line and conference player of the year favorites Isaiah Thomas and Derrick Williams going head-to-head for the first time this season, Hec Edmundson Pavilion was packed last night.

    The Huskies Walloped Oregon, But Will They Miss Abdul Gaddy?

    Image via​Last night against the woeful Oregon Ducks, Washington's Terrence Ross looked like the team's most talented player. The wiry freshman from Portland led all scorers with 25 points. He coolly drained three-pointers, attacked the rim with a variety of acrobatic maneuvers, and slammed ho ... More >>

    Does Tony Wroten's Signing Signal the End of Abdul Gaddy's Husky Career?

    ​If the Huskies receiving a commitment from a Seattle-Tacoma area point guard who's ranked among the top five at his position nationally sounds familiar, that's because it is. Garfield star Tony Wroten's decision to wear purple and gold next year is reminiscent of Bellarmine star Abdul Gaddy c ... More >>

    Gaddy's Gettin' Gooder, But Beach's Baby Be Better

    "Look, ma, both hands!" Will Gaddy's double-palmed runner become his signature move?​What a breath of fresh air the Husky hoopsters' 94-61 annihilation of Stanford was last night. Sparked by Justin Holiday and his Spiderman frame, the Dawgs' hyperkinetic defensive intensity gave us a clue as t ... More >>

    Quincy Pondexter to Dance in Nutcracker, and Abdul Gaddy Is Officially a Bust

    Quincy, come dance with me.​I took a lot of shit earlier this week for: (a) suggesting that the Dawgs' lofty ranking was undeserved, (b) suggesting that Quincy Pondexter might not be a first-round draft pick at season's end, and (c) suggesting that highly-touted frosh point guard Abdul Gaddy m ...

    Lucky Dawgs' Inflated Ranking a Direct Reflection of Abdul Gaddy's Inflated Ranking

    Shoot, man, it sure wasn't this hard at Bellarmine Prep.​After witnessing UW's way-harder-than-it-should-have-been 63-59 victory over Montana--Montana!--last night at Hec Ed, I've come to the conclusion that the Huskies' sky-high national ranking (#14) is directly linked to the stratospheric e ...

    Know Your Huskies (Before They Leave)

    The P-I's Dan Raley performs a public service for casual Husky hoop fans with this assessment of each player's performance this year and prospects going forward. We think he's a little stingy toward Venoy Overton, who deserves much praise for harassing opposing ballhandlers, but Raley's most notewor ... More >>
