NASSAU, Bahamas — At his introductory news conference in April, UNLV coach Marvin Menzies said his basketball team would live up to the nickname Runnin’ Rebels.
The Rebels certainly didn’t walk the ball up the court in their first two games at the Summer of Thunder exhibition series at Sir Kendal Isaacs Gym.
They ran at every opportunity in Tuesday’s 106-85 victory over the CTG Knights of the Bahamas Basketball Federation.
