RENO, Nev. (AP) — Kenan Blackshear scored four of his 20 points in overtime and Nevada beat No. 24 San Diego State 70-66 on Friday night.
Tre Coleman added four points and two key steals in the extra period as the Wolf Pack defeated AP Top 25 teams in back-to-back games for the first time. Nevada (19-5, 6-4 Mountain West) won 77-63 at No. 22 Utah State on Tuesday.
Coleman’s short jumper with 12 seconds left gave Nevada a 68-66 lead. Blackshear added two free throws in the final second after SDSU’s Darrion Trammell missed a 3-point attempt.
Jordan Lucas had 15 points and Nick Davidson scored 14 for the Wolf Pack, who led the entire game until the 3:47 mark of the second half, when the Jay Pal converted a three-point play for the Aztecs.
San Diego State (18-6, 7-4) maintained a narrow lead down the stretch in regulation, but Davidson picked up a loose-ball offensive rebound and laid it in to tie it at 60 with 5.3 seconds to play. He missed the ensuing free throw, and the Aztecs couldn’t get off a shot in the final seconds.
