The steady revival of Silas Melson

It has been a long and arduous road, but it looks like Silas Melson is finally on the mend.

Silas Melson was recruited to come to Gonzaga because of his scoring prowess and hard-nosed defense. The big guard was a leader for Jefferson High School in Portland, Oregon, and the hope was that his arrival would give the Zags a stellar scoring compliment to Josh Perkins in the backcourt.

""Silas will remind people of Gary Bell Jr., a lot," said Coach Mark Few after Melson committed to Gonzaga.

Melson "can really shoot," Few says.
