Former Gonzaga guard Dominick Harris lands at fifth school in seven years

Former Gonzaga Bulldogs guard Dominick Harris is returning to the West Coast Conference, seven years after he first arrived in Spokane as a freshman ahead of the 2020-21 season.

Harris is set to join Dave Smart and the Pacific Tigers this upcoming season, according to an announcement by the team on social media Monday morning.

The Tigers will be Harris’ third different WCC team, third team in his home state of California, and fifth team overall. The 6’3 guard from Murrieta, CA, spent three years at Gonzaga, one year at LMU, another at UCLA, and then appeared in seven games last year for Loyola Chicago in the A-10.

However, a foot injury ultimately cost Harris the entire 2021-22 season, and he was limited to just 13 games in 2022-23 in what would be his final year at Gonzaga.

The Murrieta native stayed in the WCC and transferred close to home at LMU in 2023-24, having what is far and away the best season of his career for Stan Johnson and the Lions. In 24 games, Harris averaged 14.3 points and 3.3 rebounds, while leading the conference with an outstanding 44.8% clip from beyond the arc.
