RENO, Nev. (AP) — Donovan Dent’s 33 points led New Mexico past Nevada 71-67 on Tuesday night, assuring the Lobos of at least a tie for the Mountain West Conference regular-season title and the No. 1 seed for the league tournament.
Dent also added seven assists for the Lobos (24-6, 16-3 Mountain West Conference), who have one game remaining at home against UNLV. New Mexico swept second-place Colorado State (15-4).
Nelly Junior Joseph added nine points for New Mexico while shooting 3 of 8 from the field and 3 for 4 from the line while he also had 15 rebounds. Mustapha Amzil shot 2 of 9 from the field, including 2 for 6 from 3-point range, and went 2 for 4 from the line to finish with eight points.
Nick Davidson finished with 15 points and seven rebounds for the Wolf Pack (16-14, 8-11). Kobe Sanders added 15 points, six rebounds, six assists, two steals and two blocks for Nevada. Tyler Rolison finished with 12 points and six assists.
