Steele Venters is a senior guard who provides scoring punch off the bench, averaging 5.0 points in 15.1 minutes per game. He takes care of the ball with just 0.7 turnovers per game.
Steele Venters' path to the Gonzaga rotation has been defined by perseverance through two devastating injuries. The 6-7 wing originally starred at Eastern Washington, where he earned Big Sky Player of the Year honors as a redshirt sophomore after averaging 16.7 points while shooting 43.4 percent from three. He followed that with another All-Big Sky campaign in 2022-23, posting 15.3 points per game and shooting 37.1 percent from deep. Venters transferred to Gonzaga in April 2023 but never suited up for the Bulldogs in his first two years in Spokane, tearing his right ACL before the 2023-24 season and then rupturing his left Achilles tendon during a shooting drill in August 2024. After being cleared for full-contact practice in the summer of 2025, the now 24-year-old wing returned to game action for the 2025-26 season, bringing three years of college experience and an elite shooting pedigree to a Gonzaga team that had patiently waited for his arrival.
