RENO, Nev. - University of Nevada men's basketball freshman Cameron Oliver was named the Mountain West All-Tournament team for his performance in the Wolf Pack's two games in Las Vegas. Oliver was the only player that did not play in the championship game that was selected to the team.
Oliver averaged 23.5 points, 12.5 rebounds, 3.5 blocks, one steal and shot 48.6 percent from the field in 39.5 minutes per game.
In the Pack's 64-62 quarterfinal win over New Mexico he scored a career-high 26 points and grabbed a game-high 15 rebounds to post his seventh double-double of the season.
