Lobo basketball can’t play ’em all in the Pit, no matter how much they’d like to. So come November, they’ll be playing at least a pair of non-conference games in their second most common location: Las Vegas, Nevada. UNM has signed on to be one of four teams in the 2021 Las Vegas Classic basketball tournament Thanksgiving week in the Orleans Hotel & Casino. The other three teams were not announced. As part of the contract for the event signed earlier this month by UNM and Basketball Promotions & Events LLC, the company that puts on the tournament, the Lobos will pay $30,000 to participate and get two games – Nov. 25 and Nov. 26 – in addition to lodging for the team and travel party.
