Drew Timme is quickly becoming one of America’s favorite college basketball players.
The Gonzaga forward was a man on a mission against Memphis in the Second Round of the 2022 NCAA Tournament on Saturday night.
Timme had just four points in the first half as No. 1 Gonzaga trailed No. 9 Memphis 41-31. He must have had Michael Jordan’s “Secret Stuff!” from Space Jam at halftime because he was an entirely different player during the last 20 minutes.
Timme dropped 21 in the second half to finish with 25 overall in Gonzaga’s 82-78 victory. It’s not his performance that’s trending on social media though.
The Gonzaga star’s postgame interview is going viral:
