Utah State “manhandled” by Boise State as MW title hopes fade once again | Sports

Heading into Wednesday’s marquee mid-major matchup, Utah State had recently been the recipients of a gift from its fellow conference teams — a chance to control its destiny for a Mountain West regular season title. But those re-ignited hopes will fade back down in the wake of an 82-65 defeat at Boise State. It’s the second-worst defeat by the Aggies this season, only trailing the 19-point loss to New Mexico in the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum back on Feb. 1. “Boise State was very, very physical. I though we got physically manhandled from start to finish,” USU head coach Jerrod Calhoun said. “We had a lot of bad turnovers. They dominated us on our cuts. They just bullied us around the rim. We got no leverage, no finishes. So you’ve got to credit Boise State. I though their fans, their team was ready to go. Aggies were not.” Losses by New Mexico to Boise State and San Diego State meant the Aggies and Lobos were tied at the top of the Mountain West standings. It meant that even though USU had lost the season series, a share of the regular season conference title was in play if the Aggies won

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Keegan Murray scored a season-high 26 points and Zach Levine added 22 to lift the hot-shooting Sacramento Kings to a 118-101 win over the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night. Murray made five 3-pointers, Levine had four and Keon Ellis returned to the court to make three 3s as the Kings made 15 of 36 from beyond the arc. Sacramento was equally potent inside the paint with 50 points and shot 52.9% overall to start their four-game road swing. Murray scored on a mix of dunks, drives and his trademark long jumpers while topping 20 points for the first time since he had 21 on Nov. 24 in a loss to Brooklyn. Walker Kessler had a season-high 25 points and 14 rebounds for Utah, which has lost four of five. Kessler — who shot 10 for 10 from the field and had five assists — joined Nikola Jokic as the only players in NBA history with at least 25 points, 10 rebounds, five assists and no turnovers while shooting 100% from the field.
