When No. 10 Nevada desperately needed a big shot, Cody Martin delivered.
With the shot clock winding down, the redshirt senior made a 3-pointer to assure Nevada a 72-71 victory over Boise State on Tuesday night at Taco Bell Arena.
Boise State got the ball back with 4.5 seconds left after Martin’s shot. The Broncos’ first attempt to inbound the ball was batted away. Justinian Jessup then received the inbounds pass on the second try and hoisted a 3-point shot from about 40 feet out that bounced off the backboard as the buzzer sounded.
Alex Hobbs led the Broncos with 19 points.
