Tough shooting in return Amzil amassed three points (1-8 FG, 1-6 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal across 15 minutes during Tuesday's 73-65 loss to San Diego State.
Impact Amzil returned from a two-game absence, but he may not yet be at 100 percent, as his 15 minutes played were a season-low despite getting the starting nod. The fact he was going up against the best defense in the Mountain West may have also contributed to his 1-for-8 shooting line. He'll get a much easier matchup, and effectively an opportunity to get back into rhythm, when New Mexico hosts Air Force on Saturday.

The 6-foot-9 senior has been an impact player for the Lobos this season, averaging 12.6 points and 5.6 rebounds per game through 23 contests. Amzil can be looked at as questionable for Wednesday's game against Wyoming.
