Note: not all player statistics are available; however, the total points for players and teams are always correct.

Rob Miech's Take: He was the most consistent freshman during preseason practice. He's been getting time pushing the ball up court, against standout point man Derrick Jasper, and he knows the most important rule about shooting — if you miss, keep jacking it ... they'll fall eventually. He will force himself into the rotation.
Miech's Question: When will some of his many classmates realize that he plays basketball at UNLV? He hasn't let on. They will know who you are soon enough, Justin.
