One day after receiving his Olympic ring for helping guide Team USA to the gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Gonzaga men’s basketball coach Mark Few received another monumental honor: a potential induction into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.
The Basketball Hall of Fame announced its class of 2025 finalists on Friday as part of NBA All-Star weekend, and Few was one of 17 people on the list.
The finalists include players, coaches, referees and contributors. The finalists will be considered for election as members of the class of 2025, with the new class officially announced during the Final Four in San Antonio on April 5.
Few has led Gonzaga to 25 consecutive NCAA tournament berths and is the winningest active college basketball coach by percentage. He has won at least 20 games in all 25 seasons as a head coach, and is the second-fastest coach to 700 wins in NCAA Division I history.
Here are the 17 Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame finalists for the class of 2025:
