Aztecs host Florida Atlantic guard Nick Boyd and Bowling Green forward Rashaun Agee
Lamont Butler took the outlet pass and dribbled 80 feet to the opposite baseline, crossed over and hoisted a 14-footer to beat the buzzer and Florida Atlantic in the Final Four last year in Houston. The FAU defender on that play, who shadowed Butler down the floor and cut off the baseline drive, was 6-foot-3 guard Nick Boyd. They could be teammates at San Diego State next season.
1 percent on 3s last season – but his winning pedigree is. He was the point guard who led a mid-major program from Conference USA to the Final Four, scoring 12 points on 4 of 7 behind the arc against SDSU in the semifinals last April. “It’s a bittersweet moment,” Boyd said in Houston after Butler’s shot eliminated the Owls. “I’m not dwelling on it much. I’m ready to get back to work. I’m happy for our team. I mean, we put FAU on the map. That’s most important to me.
