The game everyone has been waiting for all season caps this week of high school basketball action.
Bishop Gorman and Coronado face off at 8 p.m. Friday at Cox Pavilion for a meeting of the state’s top two programs airing live on ESPNU. It’s got a lot to live up to considering the teams’ last showdown, which saw Bishop Gorman win 70-67 on a 3-pointer from Noah Taitz in the final seconds. And Las Vegas Sun sports editors Ray Brewer and Case Keefer find themselves on different sides.
Read below to see who’s picking who in Bishop Gorman vs. Coronado as well as picks on nine other games this week.
