Just like in his college days, the former Zag will be wearing #11 in honor of his father.
Domantas Sabonis is switching from #10 to #11 for the 2024-2025 season. He received permission from the children of Sacramento Kings legend Bob Davies to use his retired number.
Sabonis’ father, Arvydas, wore the same number during his Naismith Hall of Fame career with the Portland Trail Blazers as well as in Europe.
“The number 11 holds a special place in mine and my family’s lives, having worn it throughout my career in honor of my father,” Domantas told Jake Gadon of CBS Sacramento.

Sabonis also wore #11 during his college days so it will look very familiar to Gonzaga fans.
