UNLV Struggles, Dedan Thomas Jr. Shines

The UNLV Runnin’ Rebels are facing a challenging start to their season, having dropped four of their last five games and now standing at a 5-5 record. Despite this, there are some bright spots, particularly in the performance of guard Dedan Thomas Jr.

Thomas Jr. has been UNLV's top player and leading scorer, averaging 16.6 points, 4.0 assists, and 2.0 rebounds per game. He has been impressive from beyond the arc, knocking down threes at a 41.9% rate. This efficiency is a significant factor, as UNLV as a team boasts the 37th-best three-point percentage in the country.

Following a narrow one-point loss to Dayton on Wednesday, the Rebels are looking to rebound when they host UC Riverside on Saturday, December 21. UNLV has a strong home record, standing at 5-1 on their home court this season, and they have a favorable history against UC Riverside, having won all four previous meetings.

Forward Jeremiah Cherry has also had a notable start to the season, particularly in his rebounding efforts.
