5 takeaways from UNLV's victory over Wyoming

Five takeaways from the UNLV basketball team's 79-74 victory over Wyoming on Saturday at the Thomas & Mack Center.

1. Jerome Seagears is tough. He really shouldn't be playing on his injured right heel, but Seagears put in 24 minutes and made 6 of 8 3-pointers despite missing the two previous days of practice. His 3-pointer with 3:45 to go gave the Rebels the lead for good at 65-62.

2. The importance of the return of Stephen Zimmerman Jr. to the lineup can't be overstated. He finished with 12 points and 11 rebounds, and gave his teammates the chance to play their more normal positions and not have to be on the court for so many minutes.
