How Melson helps the Zags

By the time Gonzaga's class of 2014 enters their campus, both Kevin Pangos and Gary Bell Jr. will be seniors, and since Mark Few and his staff failed to land a guard in either the 2012 or '13 classes, it is imperative that Gonzaga focus nearly entirely on deepening their backcourt. It has been reported that both Namon Wright and Jordan McLaughlin are being intensely pursued by the Bulldogs, but since there will be plenty of minutes available, the recent commitment of Silas Melson, a 6-foot-2 guard, makes sense.

Auburn seeking backcourt help

When Jerome Seagears decided Auburn was too far away from the east coast, and that he would transfer back to Rutgers, Auburn coach Tony Barbee was stuck. The squad lacked significant backcourt depth, and both of the Tigers' primary distributors -- Frankie Sullivan and Josh Wallace -- were no longer on the roster. Tahj Shamsid-Deen is joining the program, but Barbee would have to rely on Chris Denson, a guard who is more of a scorer than a distributor, and Virginia transfer K.T. Harrell to stabilize the team's ball-handling duties.

Anthony Grant has had a troubling offseason. First came news that Moussa Gueye, Alabama's lone 7-footer, would transfer for his final season of eligibility, an announcement that was followed by Trevor Lacey's decision to leave Tuscaloosa (ultimately committing to North Carolina State). Lacey was the first significant in-state prospect Grant convinced to commit to Alabama, and his loss -- both in recruiting and on the offensive side of ball -- cannot be overstated. Now, it would appear that another Alabama native will not play for the Tide next season.

Are you ready for a lot of stats? Hope so, because we're about to throw a bunch at you, but before we do here's the bottom line: None of this looks good or bodes well for San Antonio and its chances of winning Game 7 in Miami. But then again, this is a Spurs' team with a core that has four championships under its belt, and counting out Tony Parker, Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Gregg Popovich before Game 7 is even played is not advisable.

Portland could be considering local product E.J. Singler, a very underrated glue-like force on the Oregon Ducks the past four seasons, for one of their three second round picks (No. 39, 40 and 45) in next week's draft.
