Inland Northwest is a basketball hotbed

COUGARS, BULLDOGS

Two for the price of one.

CBS Sportsline writer Garry Parrish picks both Washington State and Gonzaga in his college basketball preseason top 25.

The Cougars are picked seventh and the Zags No. 18. Pretty good for the Inland Northwest.

• Former Gonzaga guard Derek Raivio had a recent workout with the Trail Blazers in advance of the upcoming NBA draft.
