Anton Watson reflects on his Gonzaga career and what makes The Kennel unique: 'It's a special place'

'It's just special being a part of the program,' Watson said on Gonzaga Nation. 'It's a big family, coaches, players, everyone just feels connected. The whole university is super special.'

Anton Watson has only had a few weeks to process the last five years he's spent as an integral piece to the Gonzaga men's basketball program, but he knew early on how staying home was the right decision for him.

"I knew it was gonna be a good place for me to get better and you know, be able to showcase my basketball skills in front of my hometown," Watson said on Gonzaga Nation. "Just having that experience and you know, being able to play in front of my family and friends was something special for me."

Watson shared what he'll miss most about Gonzaga, why beating Kentucky was a career highlight for him, his future in the NBA and much more on a new Gonzaga Nation episode with former All-American Dan Dickau.
