Tre’Von Willis burst out with 24 points to lead UNLV to a 77-71 victory over the West Sydney Razorbacks on the Rebels’ tour of Australia on Saturday afternoon.
The sophomore point guard, a transfer from Memphis, scored 18 of his points in the second half.
With 85 seconds remaining, the score was tied 69-69 when senior guard Mareceo Rutledge drilled a 3-point shot, and senior guard Wink Adams canned another 30 seconds later to give UNLV breathing room.
Adams scored 18 points and Rutledge finished with 14.
UNLV is 2-1 on its trip. It flies to Brisbane on Sunday and plays the Queensland All-Stars on Monday.
