    Breakout year leaves Gibbs-Lawhorn, UNLV with offseason decisions - The Sun Daily

    Gibbs-Lawhorn is more than UNLV’s best player — the junior guard is among the best in the Mountain West and leads the conference in scoring. That, unfortunately, presents a problem moving forward for the Rebels. In an era where players thrive at one school only to chase a bigger NIL payday elsewhere, Gibbs-Lawhorn’s breakout season has positioned him for a seven-figure deal next year.

    Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar says Nevada would challenge a reported executive order by President Donald Trump declaring a national emergency to overhaul U.S. elections over alleged foreign interference. The Trump administration would use the declaration to prevent most Americans from using mail-in ballots and mandate voter identification in the fall midterm elections, according to a draft executive order reported Thursday by The Washington Post.

    Nevada business owner to attend State of the Union as face of tourism decline - The Sun Daily

    U.S. Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., is highlighting the Trump administration’s impact on Nevada’s tourism-dependent small businesses at this year’s State of the Union, bringing the owner of the Stargazer Inn in Baker to the address Tuesday night. Baker serves as a gateway to Great Basin National Park, which has over 140,000 visitors a year, and Elizabeth Woolsey’s inn and general store is one of its most prominent spots to rest and refuel. In 2024, the park had one of its best years ever in terms of visitation, according to the National Park Service. However, Woolsey believes that the number declined last year alongside Las Vegas’ 7.5% drop in visitation. She says President Donald Trump’s policies are to blame.
