What to Know
The UNLV Rebels will look to defend their home court on Monday against the Wichita State Shockers. If the game is anything like their last meeting in December of 2015, where Wichita State won 56-50, we could be in for a big score.

Meanwhile, it was close but no cigar for Wichita State as they fell 82-78 to the Arizona Wildcats this past Friday. Guard Tyson Etienne (27 points) was the top scorer for Wichita State.
The losses put UNLV at 3-2 and the Shockers at 3-1. A couple offensive stats to keep an eye on: The Rebels have only been able to knock down 37.10% percent of their shots, which is the 10th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. Wichita State has experienced some struggles of their own as they have only been able to knock down 37.30% percent of their shots, which is the 15th lowest field goal percentage in college basketball.
