In a shocking development, Gonzaga will go into the 2026-27 men’s college basketball season without its starting point guard.
Sophomore Mario Saint-Supéry has opted to sign with Euroleague squad Valencia instead of returning to Spokane, Washington — and just four months before the upcoming season tips off. Valencia announced the signing on social media and Saint-Supery said goodbye to the Bulldogs and their fans with an Instagram post.
According to CBS Sports’ Matt Norlander, Saint-Supery has agreed to a four-year deal worth $15 million to play in Spain.
Saint-Supery’s decision comes less than two weeks after Gonzaga officially joined the newly formed Pac-12 conference as a member in men’s and women’s basketball, in addition to Olympic sports.
Several college basketball ***** ysts and observers projected the Bulldogs to be ranked among the top 10 to 15 teams in the nation before the 2026-27 season tips off. But a team that already looked to be thin in the backcourt, especially early in the season, has lost its starting point guard.
