Runnin’ Rebels heading to the Bahamas & Troy Brown Visits

The UNLV Men’s Basketball team will be traveling to the Bahamas to play three exhibition games.

In just under a week, fans of the UNLV men's basketball team will get a glimpse at what the Runnin’ Rebels will look like for the 2016-2017 season, as the team will be traveling to the Bahamas to play three exhibition games.

Beginning on August 14th, the Rebels will square off against the University of Toronto, followed by games against the Bahamas Basketball Federation Knights on August 16th and the Providence Storm on August 18th.

The NCAA allows schools to make one exhibition trip like this every four years, and the timing of this trip couldn’t have come at a more important time for first year head coach Marvin Menzies.
