Braden Huff - College Basketball News & Rumors

Injury update Huff (knee) continues to work through a long-term knee injury that will sideline him until the NCAA Tournament, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Huff, who hasn't played since Jan. 8, is five weeks into his projected eight-week recovery timeline with the 6-foot-10 junior "just getting ready to be off crutches and walking in a few days" according to head coach Mark Few. Huff was a driving force behind Gonzaga's early-season success averaging 17.8 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists across 18 starts. The team is still hopeful to have their starting center back for the NCAA Tournament, but it will likely be an uphill battle for Huff to be in top-form just four short weeks from now.

Out until NCAA tournament Huff (knee) is out until the 2026 NCAA tournament, according to Theo Lawson of Spokesman.com.

Impact Gonzaga's head coach Mark Few announced that for Huff to physically recover, his injured knee requires at least four weeks. "We (the team's decision-makers) said four to eight weeks, it'll be at least eight," its HC recently said. As of Sunday, the 2026 West Coast Conference tournament final is two days before when Huff can become available. For his 2025-26 season's WCC games, he averaged 14.4 points and 6.4 rebounds. Yet, the 2026 NCAA tournament can include Huff. "We'll get him off crutches here in a little while. As that progresses, we'll see how it's going. He's a long ways away from getting back, but hopefully. Who knows," Few said.
