One player who has been leading the charge for the Lobos is star guard Jaelen House.

His shooting accuracy was also on point, with a field goals percentage of 48%. House's ability to score from beyond the arc was evident as well, as he achieved a three-points percentage of 20%. With such a dominant performance, House is expected to play a crucial role in leading his team to victory against the Rams.


Another key player for the Lobos is Donovan Dent. In their recent game against the Utah State Aggies, Dent displayed his versatility on the court with 17 points, 5 assists, and 3 rebounds. His shooting efficiency was remarkable, with a field goals percentage of 50% and a two-points percentage of 50%. Dent's ability to distribute the ball effectively and create scoring opportunities for his teammates will be vital in overcoming the tough defense of the Rams.

Clifford's previous game against the Nevada Wolf Pack showcased his skills with 15 points, 4 assists, and 9 rebounds. Strong has also been a force to be reckoned with, contributing an average of 11 points per game over the last three games.
