ANALYSIS: New Mexico St. is a fairly decent basketball team that, while likely better than average, isn't quite good enough to crack any top-25 rankings this year.

Against AO, the team successfully converts 11.9% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked first nationally), and with a rating of 21.10, they're ninth in potential points scored off of the offensive glass as well. New Mexico St. will also routinely look to penetrate, pound the ball inside, and score from as short a distance as possible. The ball-club is eighth in the NCAA in ratio of near-proximity attempts to total field goal attempts. If you do allow them to get to the inside, they are undoubtedly capable of making you pay. Presently rated in the top-100 in near-proximity shooting percentage, they make roughly 61.2% of their attempts from short-distance vs. AO.
