A winter spent in seclusion has motivated Bryce Jones to show something special in Las Vegas.
UNLV Basketball
Guard Wink Adams, who finished his college career as UNLV’s sixth all-time leading scorer, and forward Rene Rougeau, a walk-on who became a two-year starter and was the Rebels’ most versatile player, know they won’t be drafted, but they still aim to play in the NBA.
The point guard in Robert Smith could handle tonight without dropping a tear or bead of sweat. Calm. Cool. A massive grip around his emotions.
UNLV’s Lon Kruger realizes he’s in an enviable position by serving as the unofficial host coach of the Mountain West Conference basketball tournament.
In two years at Utah, coach Jim Boylen has made an impact on Mountain West Conference basketball in a variety of ways.
The first time he was recruited by UNLV, Quintrell Thomas decided his basketball future was more promising in Kansas. A year later, he had second thoughts.
When they last met, UNLV basketball coach Lon Kruger and Louisville’s Rick Pitino parted ways without a handshake. Kruger was the surprise winner, and Pitino was perceived as a sore loser.

A late bloomer in high school, DeShawn Mitchell was viewed as a potential recruiting steal when he signed with UNLV.
Here comes the call from death again, being its ironic self. A fight had just broken out during the Wranglers playoff game Monday evening at the Orleans Arena when the news of Glen Gondrezick’s passing arrived.
With one scholarship available for next season, UNLV coach Lon Kruger has several options. Some of those options might not even be obvious to him yet.
One problem after another ambushed coach Lon Kruger this past season, and the losses started piling up on UNLV as a result.
LEXINGTON, Ky. — On the brink of one final embarrassment, UNLV made the type of inspired run that seniors Wink Adams and Rene Rougeau had hoped to see more of all season. But in the end, the Rebels’ comeback Tuesday night typified their entire season. It was a tease that fell short at the finish line — a 70-60 loss to Kentucky in the first round of the National Invitation Tournament.
