Second UNLV Basketball Player Declares For Draft

Another UNLV basketball player is set to forgo the remainder of his college eligibility and enter the NBA Draft.

The Las Vegas Sun reports sophomore guard Pat McCaw announced he will be leaving school to turn professional.

The announcement comes after freshman Stephen Zimmerman also announced he would be leaving to turn professional, and after UNLV announced the hiring of Chris Beard from the University of Arkansas-Little Rock as the program's next head coach.

Casey Morell is the coordinating producer of Nevada Public Radio's flagship broadcast State of Nevada and one of the station's midday newscast announcers. (He's also been interviewed by Jimmy Fallon, whatever that's worth.)
How is Las Vegas' healthcare system really doing, and what does it mean for you and your family? Desert Companion's Health Issue takes a deep dive into these questions and explores how heart-centered business leaders prove that doing good benefits the bottom line.
