Glue Guy of the Week: Mike Hart, 6-6 senior forward, Gonzaga

My good friend Fran Fraschilla has been promoting Hart for Glue Guy recognition for so long, I was starting to wonder whether he owed Hart money. But Hart proved his worth last Thursday at Saint Mary's, where he helped the Zags stick together as the Gaels made a run in the second half and Gonzaga emerged with a 77-60 victory. Hart is Gonzaga's most versatile defender, and he was a big reason his team was able to hold the Gaels to just 39.7 percent shooting. Hart finished with five points, six rebounds and two assists in the win, but of course that doesn't begin to explain his value. For example, with a little over two minutes to play, Hart chased down an offensive rebound deep in the corner to give Gonzaga an extra possession. He shuffled the ball to center Kelly Olynyk, who in turn fed Gary Bell Jr. for a three-pointer. Working the game for ESPN, Fraschilla said from courtside, "Mike Hart gets an assist on that even though you'll never see it in the stat sheet." You will, however, see it in the Fast Break.
