One of the most experienced guards in college basketball has committed to Gonzaga. Former Dayton standout Javon Bennett will seek to play out his final season of eligibility with the Bulldogs, according to a report from On3's Joe Tipton.
Bennett was one of 15 players who filed a lawsuit against the NCAA in the wake of the NCAA approving an age-based eligibility model. The suit resulted in an injunction for the 15 athletes in Ohio, granting them eligibility for the 2026-27 college basketball season.

The injunction also granted the athletes the ability to transfer now outside of the NCAA's designated transfer portal window. The transfer portal window for men's basketball opened on Tuesday, April 7 and closed on Tuesday, April 21.
Javon Bennett should be a quality addition for Gonzaga. He spent his last three years suiting up for Dayton after initially starting his college career at Merrimack.
