Look at Justin Hawkins. He’s the exception. He’s the one who in middle school thought first about stopping the basketball more than scoring it, the one who turned on a television and mimicked the NBA actions of Bruce Bowen more than Michael Jordan.
UNLV Basketball
Tulsa basketball has been alive and dribbling for 100 years now. Back in 1921, when it went by the name Kendall College, it won the AAU national title.
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Derrick Jasper is a 6-foot-6-inch guard, but the UNLV senior played bigger than his size and filled every spot on the floor Thursday night.
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Derrick Jasper had 13 points and 10 rebounds as UNLV built a big lead and held on to defeat Tulsa 80-71 tonight in the first round of the 76 Classic at the Anaheim Convention Center.
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.
