Impact Junior Joseph closes out the regular season with his best scoring output since the season opener. He's also dominated on the glass of late, averaging 15.0 rpg over his last four contests. The 6-10 senior has excelled in matchups against UNLV in particular in 2024-25, logging a combined 48 points and 34 rebounds across two contests. Next up for Junior Joseph and the Lobos is the Mountain West tournament, though the team appears to be in the NCAA Tournament field of 68 regardless of the outcome after winning the MWC regular season. In addition to that accomplishment, non-conference wins over UCLA, USC and VCU have all boosted New Mexico's resume.
