LAS VEGAS - The UNLV men's basketball program will host the Nike Championship Basketball Clinic on Friday and Saturday, October 18 and 19, at the Thomas & Mack Center.

The clinic, which is being held in conjunction with Runnin' Rebel practices, will be run by UNLV men's basketball head coach Charlie Spoonhour. The clinic will also include NBA analyst Hubie Brown as a featured speaker.

Pre-registration, which also buys a ticket to the Lakers/Suns NBA exhibition game on Oct. 19 at the Thomas & Mack Center, is $100 (Lakers/Suns tickets are only available to the first 300 pre-registered). Pre-registration for the clinic only is $75 and registration at the door is $100 or $125 if Lakers/Suns tickets are still available.
