Breaking down UNLV’s basketball game against Northern Arizona at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Thomas & Mack Center:
BACKCOURT
Jaleni Neely leads NAU with 14 points per game, and he also averages 4 assists. UNLV is beginning to find success with its two-headed point guard in Jalen Poyser and Jovan Mooring. Each have stepped up at various times, and Kris Clyburn is beginning to live out the promise he showed in the exhibitions.
Edge: UNLV
FRONTCOURT
Rebounding remains a major issue for the Rebels, but Christian Jones has been solid, and Dwayne Morgan has provided spark in his return from hip surgery.
