Game 651: Christmas special

UNLV vs. Bucknell
December 25 at Stan Sheriff Center in Honolulu, HI
ESPNU

A dominant performance from Bucknell in the third-place game of the Diamond Head Classic as the Bison hit 14 three-pointers (and shot 56%) and rolled to a 97-72 victory.

Six different players were in double figures for Bucknell (6-6), led by Kimbal Mackenzie's 16 points. Jimmy Sotos handed out a tournament-record 12 assists (Bucknell had 26 assists on 37 made baskets).

UNLV made its first 3-pointer of the night, then missed its next 19, and was never really in the game after halftime. Bucknell led by as many as 36 on a Sotos-assisted lay-in that turned into a three-point play from Mackenzie at the 6:16 mark.

"dribble drive"  !

Great job by LaPhonso Ellis for getting in a quick "dribble drive", just 3:58 into the game.

That's Ellis' first appearance on our list.
