Boise State’s Nick Duncan and Justinian Jessup needed bounce back games in the worst possible way.
After Saturday’s effort against Air Force at Taco Bell Arena, consider them back.
The duo combined to hit seven 3-pointers as Boise State defeated Air Force 77-66 for its fourth-straight victory. The win puts the Broncos a 1/2 game ahead of idle Nevada at the top of the Mountain West standings.
Prior to Saturday’s game, Duncan was 9-for-48 from behind the 3-point line over the previous seven games while Jessup had scored in double-figures just once since New Year’s. They ended up with 14 and 9 points, respectively.
