The Wolf Pack basketball team, which is 8-4, opens Mountain West action Wednesday when it plays at New Mexico. Here is a look at the good, the bad and the team’s MW outlook as it enters MW play.
The good: The Wolf Pack has nearly matched its win total from last season already, so there’s been plenty of good developments. Nevada finished second to last in the NCAA in 3-point shooting last year at 26.6 percent but is at a more respectable 33.2 percent this season. The team is averaging 80.6 points per game, up 20 points per game from 2014-15, thanks in part to playing at a faster pace.
