2025 Tournament PreviewMontana won a share of the Big Sky regular season before taking the conference tournament to earn its sixth trip to the NCAA Tournament since 2010. The Grizzlies boast a top-100 offense (per KenPom) thanks to quality shooting, ranking 18th nationally in effective field goal percentage. Despite no rotation player taller than 6-foot-8, the Grizzlies convert 57.3 percent of two-pointers (17th), and they rank 55th in three-point percentage, led by junior guard Malik Moore (12.8 ppg), who shoots 41.1 percent from deep. Three others average double figures, including sophomore point guard Money Williams (13.3 ppg) and 6-5 senior guard Joe Pridgen (11.5 ppg, 6.9 rpg), the team's leading rebounder. Defense is a secondary (250th in efficiency on KenPom) and the Grizzlies came up short in four Quad 1 opportunities, with notable losses of 30-plus to Oregon and Tennessee. Montana's first-round opponent, Wisconsin, is at least that caliber.
