Vegas Play of the Day: UNLV vs. UCLA

UNLV Defeats Southern Utah

L.E. Baskow

UNLV forward Dwayne Morgan (15) signals a defensive plan to teammates versus Southern Utah at the Thomas & Mack Center on Wednesday , November 18, 2015.

We've reset the Play of the Day with fresh bankrolls and turned it into a yearly competition. Our three sports writers have restarted with $10,000 bankrolls to continue using on odds from the South Point.

UNLV plus-4 vs. UCLA in Maui Invitational: $550 to win $500

I would go with either team getting at least three points in this one, because it feels very much like a coin flip.

UCLA hasn’t looked good in its 2-1 start to the season and UNLV’s new style hasn’t been tested in a real game against similar athletes. The Bruins' guards should provide a good litmus test for where this full-court press is at, and it will be interesting to see how the Rebels handle UCLA big man Tony Parker on the boards.

Current Standings (as of July 1): Brewer (23-19, $10,550), Bern (15-22, $7,205), Keefer (17-28-2, $5,871)

Lifetime standings: 2014-15 Champion Bern (96-95-1), Keefer (101-112-4), Brewer (92-106-2)
