Robbins, who shot 7-for-11 from the field, also was credited with eight of his team's nine blocked shots.

Fresno State (1-5) lost its fifth game in a row despite Jemarl Baker Jr.'s 22 points. Isaih Moore and Eduardo Andre added 10 points apiece for the Bulldogs, who shot just 4-for-23 on 3-point attempts. Baker was 8-for-20 from the field, though only 1-for-8 from long distance.
