Â
Gonzaga will make six ESPN appearances during conference play and will appear three times during the non-conference schedule. BYU will play eight ESPN games during WCC play, with Saint Mary's having the third-most games on ESPN.
Â
All games aired on an ESPN network will also be available through the ESPN app, accessible on computers, smartphones, tablets and connected devices to fans who receive their video subscription from an affiliated provider.
This marks year four of the modified WCC men's basketball schedule. The 16-game schedule is the result of changes adopted by the WCC Presidents' Council in 2018 as part of the conference's Men's Basketball Enhancement Plan.
