Gonzaga’s offseason is disrupted after the team learns that starting point guard Mario Saint-Supéry is leaving for Spain to sign with Valencia, a EuroLeague club. Multiple outlets report the move as an immediate loss for coach Mark Few’s Bulldogs because Saint-Supéry is the team’s primary point guard. The departure comes during the summer period as Gonzaga prepares for the 2026–27 season.
Yahoo Sports and Yahoo Sports (NCAAB) describe Gonzaga as having been projected as a top-15 program for 2026–27, but now facing a significant personnel gap at point guard. The New York Post adds that Gonzaga does not yet appear to have an external replacement in place. The Athletic notes that Saint-Supéry was expected to be one of two European guards supporting a roster with a strong frontcourt, and that his exit leaves the Bulldogs potentially exposed in the backcourt.
Across the reports, the central points are consistent: Saint-Supéry is leaving Gonzaga to join Valencia in the EuroLeague, and Gonzaga must adjust its plans for the upcoming season without him.
