What you need to know about San Francisco
San Francisco put the finishing touches on its ninth blowout victory of the season on Saturday. It blew past the Pepperdine Waves 92-68. San Francisco got its victory on the backs of several key players, but it was Ndewedo Newbury out in front who scored 19 points to go along with five rebounds. The team also got some help courtesy of Mike Sharavjamts, who scored 12 points to go along with three rebounds and three assists.
San Fran is one of the best defensive teams in the nation, ranking 12th in the country in defensive rating. It is also extremely efficient on the other end of the court, ranking fifth in the nation with 49.7% on its field goal attempts. However, the Dons aren’t proficient at getting to the charity stripe as their 14.6 free throw attempts per game rank 356th out of 362 Division I teams. See which team to pick here.
What you need to know about Gonzaga
Meanwhile, Gonzaga entered its tilt with the Santa Clara Broncos with five consecutive wins, but it’ll enter its next game with six. The Bulldogs walked away with a 94-81 victory over the Broncos on Saturday. Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Gonzaga to victory, but perhaps none more so than Graham Ike, who scored 26 points to go along with seven rebounds. Another player making a difference was Nolan Hickman, who scored 20 points to go along with five assists.
With a 22-6 record, the Zags are already tied for their most losses in a season since 2016-17. They were ranked as high as No. 7 in the Top 25 poll but uncharacteristically find themselves unranked heading into March. The offense is still elite, ranking fifth in the country in points per game and third in offensive rating, but the team just hasn’t been able to keep its momentum after outright victories. Gonzaga is just 7-13 ATS after a win, and even though it has won six consecutive games straight-up, the Zags enter tonight’s matchup with three straight ATS losses. See which team to pick here.

Sometimes life requires an easy hang, without the need for reservations and dressing up, and preferably with food that’s easy to rally folks behind. The newish Hamburguesa Bar is just such a place, opening in December 2025 and serving a tight food menu of smash and tavern burgers (made with beef ground in-house), along with hand-cut duck fat fries, poutine, and Caesar salad. The best part? Nothing here costs more than $20. Seriously, this spot has so much going for it, including solid cocktails and boozy shakes. It’s become a homing beacon for post-work hangs, judging by a recent weekday crowd.
Hamburguesa Bar’s drinks are the epitome of unfussy: Cocktail standards, four beers on tap, two choices of wine (red or white), boozy and non-boozy shakes, plus 21 beers by the can or bottle. Standards on the cocktail menu are just that, a list of drinks you’ve heard before — such as an Old Fashioned, daiquiri, gin or vodka martini, or Harvey Wallbanger — with no special tinctures or fat-washed liquors to speak of (that we know of, at least). I’m typically split on whether boozy shakes are ever worth it, but the Fruity Pebbles option ($14) makes a convincing case, mixed with a just-right amount of vodka and some cereal bits. (I’ll leave the more adventurous Cinnamon Toast shake made with Fireball to others with more positive experiences with that liquor.)
Downtown and SoMa has a reputation for restaurants closing early, but Hamburguesa Bar keeps later hours, closing at midnight from Monday through Saturday (closed Sundays). It’s also open for lunch at noon during those days, with the exception of Saturdays when it opens at 5 p.m.
She acknowledged that Iranian Americans hold a range of political views, including some who support U.S. intervention, but said she believes the future of Iran should be determined by its people.
“The Iranian people in Iran can decide the future of their country,” she said. “War, I don’t think, is going to help.”
Speaking to the crowd, Mortazavi challenged what she described as a narrative that Iranians broadly support U.S. and Israeli military action.
“They want you to believe that every Iranian … is cheering on the United States and Israel,” she said. “That is unequivocally false.”
She urged attendees to continue organizing beyond the rally and announced plans for additional demonstrations.
Dina Saadeh, an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement, said multiple groups mobilized quickly in response to the strikes.
“I’m angered today,” Saadeh told KQED. “People here don’t want to see our country engaged in more endless war.”
Saadeh described the protest as part of a broader effort to oppose sanctions, military escalation and what she called U.S. imperialism. She said participants were calling on elected officials to redirect public funds toward domestic needs.
“People want money for jobs and education, not for war and occupation,” she said.
