This is great news! Tillman is transferring out of Utah and will give our front court immediate help. He's good and can also shoot the 3!

Plus he was awarded 6th Man of the Year in the PAC12 last season.

He looks like a solid player on offense how is he on defensively? Anyone know?

I've only seen him play once. From what I recall his game is well balanced. Quality defender with the ability to score. Among the players in the transfer portal he's definitely one of the guys in demand. Great pick up for TJO. Tillman passed on multiple offers from P5 schools to come to Vegas. His mother is here and she's had issues with her health so playing at UNLV allows him to be close to her. Overall I think he helps to give us a much-needed physical presence this season.

I like what Coach Otz has been able to accomplish in a short time in terms of Recruiting. If players like Hamilton, Mbacke and Hardy continue to improve and the newcomers get up to speed quick this could be a fun team to watch.
