SALT LAKE CITY -- Utah continued its early-season onslaught Friday with its third consecutive 40-plus point win.Lorenzo Bonam scored 19 points as the Utes rolled over a weary Coppin State team 94-51. Utah has now won its first three games by a combined 130 points.Its a tough stretch for those guys and they didnt have a whole lot in the way of legs, Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak said. Were just trying to learn how to respect the game regardless of who it is were playing. And the price of pokers going to go up.The energy and effort, that type of thing has been there for us. Now weve got to combine that with quite a bit more complicated scouting report, be able to engage the brain and body and everything at the same time. Thatll be a challenge for us.The Utes opened the game with a 19-3 run and never looked back as their 3-point shooters had their best stretch of the season. Utah shot 64.3 percent from behind the arc in the first half, including three triples apiece from Parker Van Dyke and Jake Connor. Van Dyke matched his career high with 15 points.On the flip side, Coppin State seemed gassed from the beginning as it played its third game in three nights. The Eagles shot just 26.9 percent from the field in the first half, making it impossible to keep up with the dead-eye Utes.Utah transfer JoJo Zamora scored a season-high 22. The Utes connected on a season-high 12 3-pointers.Coppin State has played five games in eight days, all in different cities. The Eagles also wrapped up their third consecutive game in three nights -- Coastal Carolina, BYU and Utah. All three games were 30-plus point losses.Tre Thomas, Dejuan Clayton and Keith Shivers scored a team-high 10 apiece for Coppin State.These are going to be life experiences for these guys, Coppin State coach Michael Grant said. You have to prepare yourself mentally every single day. Every time you step out here on the floor, you have to be ready to play. We havent been getting that.We have to look in the mirror. They have to assess where they are and find a way to grind this thing out because the road is not going anywhere. The schedule is not going anywhere. This is the hand were dealt.BIG PICTURECoppin State: The Eagles are in the money-making portion of their season, traveling the country for paydays against more talented programs. The conference season is what matters for Coppin State and it doesnt start MEAC play until January.Utah: The Utes continue to use the early part of the season to grow a roster with just two significant contributors from last season. The first half was their best 20 minutes of the season, but the level of competition didnt allow for a good feel of Utahs progress.NEW STARTERUtah forward Tyler Rawson started the first game of his Utes career after transferring from Salt Lake Community College. Rawson has been the second-leading scorer through the first two games and had six points, a game-high 12 rebounds and six assists Friday. Jayce Johnson moved to the bench and Krystkowiak said it wasnt a punishment, but Johnson has had some mental breakdowns in games.Im going to be mixing some stuff up, probably, throughout the course of the year, Krystkowiak said. Tylers had some good practice, thats been another factor. Starting doesnt mean much to me.UP NEXTCoppin State: The Eagles travel to play Ball State on Monday as part of 11 of 12 games on the road to start the season.Utah: The Utes continue their early, soft nonconference schedule when they host UC Riverside on Friday Odell Beckham Jr Jersey .Y. -- Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone has drawn on his Syracuse connections once again by hiring Rob Moore to take over as receivers coach. Mark Bavaro Cheap Jersey . Dusautoir, the former World Player of the Year, sustained a torn bicep playing for Toulouse in the Heineken Cup on Saturday. The flanker, who has played 65 times for France, is expected to be out for up to four months. http://www.giantsonlineteamshop.com/doug-kotar-jersey-cheap.html . -- Bryant McKinnie came out of his stance and lowered his shoulder into a practice squad player, causing a crisp thud to reverberate in the Miami Dolphins practice bubble. Phil McConkey Giants Jersey . Robinson finished with 17 points, all but two in the second half, and Lawson had 14 after halftime and finished with a game-high 11 assists as the Nuggets handed Dallas its first home loss in eight games this season. J.J. Hickson led Denver with 22, and Kenneth Faried added 10 points and 10 rebounds. Darius Slayton Jersey . After slipping from the summit during the week, the Gunners overcame struggling Crystal Palace 2-0 on Sunday thanks to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlains second-half brace. Lleyton Hewitt is hoping to reunite Nick Kyrgios and Bernard Tomic in Australias Davis Cup team for the first time in three years.Hewitt on Tuesday named Kyrgios and Tomic alongside Sam Groth and John Peers for Australias World Group playoff with Slovakia in Sydney next week.But Kyrgios is racing the clock to be fit for the grasscourt tie at Olympic Park from September 16-18 after being forced to quit his third-round US Open match with a hip injury.John Millman is on standby, with James Duckworth also in the six-man squad as an option given his ability to play both singles and doubles.Hewitt, though, is giving Kyrgios every chance to recover in time.If he does, the skipper will have top-20 stars Kyrgios and Tomic teaming up for the first time since an 18-year-old Kyrgios made his Davis Cup debut in Australias 4-1 World Group playoff win in Poland in September, 2013.Various injuries, illnesses and suspensions have prevented Kyrgios and Tomic from representing Australia together over the past three years and six ties.Obviously Id love to have those two boys leading us in the singles, Hewitt told AAP.Hopefully well have Nick. But if we dont, we still think we can put out a good outfit and we want to get back in the World Group.Weve just got to focus. Weree not taking the Slovaks lightly whatsoever.ddddddddddddBut we think we can get the job done.Slovakia are likely to be led by world No.29 Martin Klizan and the 99th-ranked Lukas Lacko.With Kyrgios in doubt, Millman is suddenly in the frame for a Cup call-up.He wasnt part of it initially purely because we had to look at doubles options as well, Hewitt said.So John Peers, Grothy and Ducks were the original squad.But Millman is certainly the next best singles player and so Ill be speaking with him and working out how Nicks going and then Ill have to make a plan on that.Im definitely covering all my bases and giving ourselves the best opportunity.After a series of devastating injuries, Millman has rebuilt his career and ranking with a fine 2016 season and was unlucky to draw eighth seed Dominic Thiem in the first round at Flushing Meadows.Millman lost in five sets and Hewitt is backing the world No.66 to do the job for Australia if asked to make his debut.I thought he played really well in New York. He would have beaten a lot of players if he didnt draw a guy like Dominic Thiem, Hewitt said.That was a really high-quality match. ' ' '
