NASSAU, Bahamas — After a disappointing first game in which UNLV lost on three free throws with half a second left, the Rebels blew out their final two opponents in the Summer of Thunder and learned a little more about their basketball team.
But it wasn’t just the exhibition games, including Thursday’s 102-87 victory over the Providence Storm of the Bahamas Basketball Federation, that will be important for the Rebels going forward.
It also was about the two weeks of practice leading up to this trip and about beginning to establish chemistry before reconvening at the end of September.
