UNLV's Kalib Boone is unlikely to play in the upcoming game against San Diego State due to an ankle injury. Boone's absence would be significant for UNLV, as he played a crucial role in their previous matchup, including a key defensive play. On the other hand, Utah's Branden Carlson is a game-time decision for the game against Arizona State. Carlson, who averages 17.5 PPG and 6.9 RPG, is dealing with an undisclosed issue but is expected to try to play. Utah's victory over ASU was dominant, with Carlson not heavily utilized in the game.
