It was the Jordan Caroline show Wednesday at Colorado State, and Nevada ended up needing just about everything the Pack forward could offer.
Caroline scored a game-high 40 points — 30 in the first half — and pulled down 12 rebounds in Nevada’s 98-82 win in Fort Collins. He made all six of his first-half 3-point attempts to push the Wolf Pack to a 52-41 advantage.
The 40 points is the most scored this season by a Mountain West player.
Caroline wasn’t alone in the heroics department. Caleb Martin had 25 points and six rebounds, and Jazz Johnson provided 15 points off the bench.
