SAN DIEGO — If you're looking for a single moment that defined San Diego State's torrid first half against UNLV on Saturday afternoon, that illustrated its sheer dominance against a (supposed) rival, that shows what kind of roll the Aztecs are on, you'd wind the tape to the 10:13 mark.
Keshad Johnson had just made one of two free throws following a UNLV flagrant foul, and now the Aztecs had the ball. Johnson got it inside and lost it, watching it roll along the floor through several Rebels players … to Lamont Butler.
Who slashed down the lane and threw down a rim-shaking, soul-altering, one-handed dunk.
