Gonzaga vs. Arizona State: A High-Stakes Showdown Set to Ignite Sun Devils’ Homecoming Weekend!

A tipoff time and television broadcast details will be announced at a later date.

The Zags’ trip to Tempe will also feature another homecoming – that of Adam Miller, the shooting guard who transferred from Arizona State to Gonzaga in May.
Miller played two seasons under Bobby Hurley at ASU, scoring eight points on 3-of-10 shooting from the floor in the team’s 88-80 loss to Gonzaga last November at the Kennel. Miller averaged 9.8 points in 30 starts in 2024-25, shooting 42.9% from the 3-point line.
Hurley’s new roster at ASU features a number of players who should be familiar to Gonzaga fans. It included junior forward Marcus Adams Jr., a one-time Kansas player who transferred to Gonzaga before playing a game with the Jayhawks. Adams signed with the Zags, but transferred out before the season began, landing at BYU and then Cal State Northridge.
After hosting the Devils in 2024-25, the Zags will make the return trip to Desert Financial Arena in Tempe on Nov. 14, according to a news release from Arizona State.
As autumn unfolds, the Gonzaga Bulldogs are gearing up for a notable rendezvous at Arizona State’s Desert Financial Arena on November 14 — a clash timed perfectly with one of the Sun Devils’ prime football weekends. This encounter isn’t just your typical game; it comes hot on the heels of Gonzaga hosting ASU in the previous season and lands just a day before ASU’s football team, heavy favorites to clinch the Big 12 title again, takes on West Virginia for their homecoming. It’s a weekend charged with energy, history, and a dash of personal narratives—like that of Adam Miller, the sharp-shooting guard who’s making his return to Tempe after crossing over from ASU to Gonzaga. The buzz doesn’t stop there, with fresh faces and familiar foes intertwining—transfers, pending eligibility waivers, and roster reinventions all shaping a matchup that promises to be anything but routine. It’s not merely about points tallied; it’s about stories converging on the hardwood, amid an intense schedule that sees the Zags taking on Oklahoma and Creighton just days before hitting the road. Trust me, this is one game you won’t want to blink through. LEARN MORE
