Nevada’s men’s basketball team secured a 74-60 victory over Air Force, improving their overall record to 13-10 and conference record to 4-7. The team was led by Nick Davidson, who had a slow start in the first half but exploded in the second half with 23 points. Davidson’s performance highlighted the defensive struggles of Air Force, as they failed to contain him in the post. The game also showcased Nevada’s effective use of zone defense, which caused Air Force to turn the ball over 16 times, leading to 26 points for Nevada. Additionally, the Wolf Pack played without veteran player TrĂ© Coleman, who was suspended for conduct detrimental to the team. Coleman’s absence allowed other players like Xavier DuSell to step up and contribute offensively. Head coach Steve Alford emphasized the need for growth and maturity from Coleman moving forward. Nevada will have a few days off before their next game against Fresno State, as they continue to strive for success in the Mountain West conference.
