It’s easy to find a comfort zone at home. UNLV coach Lon Kruger is ready to find out how his basketball team responds to changes in scenery, starting with a trip to Disneyland.
Five weeks after giving birth, Lady Rebels point guard Erica Helms already was running up and down the stairs at the Thomas & Mack Center.
In pressure situations, Chace Stanback delivered time and again on the offensive end, putting UNLV in position to steal a win.
The more I watch Chace Stanback play basketball, the more I wonder what Ben Howland was thinking.
In the end, UNLV’s speed and quickness won out over Wisconsin’s size and strength.
An arrest and a suspension were the worst and most publicized parts of UNLV senior Tre’Von Willis’ summer and fall.
Playtime is over for now. UNLV has won its first two basketball games to open what should be a highly successful season, and yet we have learned just a couple of things about the Rebels, neither of which will mean anything when Wisconsin visits Saturday.
If there is such a thing as a big shot in the second half of a blowout, UNLV junior Chace Stanback hit one Wednesday night.
