The UNLV men’s basketball team has new life.
A few days removed from being gassed at Boise State and starving for reinforcements, the Rebels get their standout center back and all of a sudden there’s new hope of winning the Mountain West Conference tournament in two weeks.
That’s how well the Rebels played in their 79-74 victory against Wyoming at the Thomas & Mack Center on Saturday.
