I'm too lazy to do all 10, but:

Ricky Sobers was our first NBA star,
Richie Adams was insanely fun to watch, and
Curtis Terry's senior year was amazing, and I loved his relentlessness.

Drop Clark and and replace him with Reggie Theus - then your list is pretty solid. I realize that you specified "favorites that you saw play"... I never got to see Theus play, but I'm including him.

The voters that contributed to the RJ's list of Top 100 RunninRebels of all time (http://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/unlv-rebels/basketball/ranking-rebels-top-100) ranked Keon Clark at #48 - and I agree with that ranking. Clark only started 14 games in his two-year UNLV career.

This does not describe a top 10 player:

In his senior season Neon Keon, as he's known, was eligible for only 10 of UNLV's 28 games. "I definitely feel like I let my team down," he says. "I came back because I thought we could win. I wanted a ring." The Rebels won the WAC tournament and then lost to Princeton in the first round of the NCAA tournament, but by the postseason, Clark was long gone. "They actually seemed to get better without him, and that makes you wonder," says one NBA general manager.
On the stand, he testified that he started drinking alcohol in high school. By the time he turned pro, he said, he was drinking a half-pint to a pint of gin a day. He drank at halftime during NBA games.

Greg Anthony
Stacey Augmon
Larry Johnson
Anderson Hunt
Moses Scury (Loved when he would rip down the rebound and scream on a missed free throw when it was the 1st of 2 shots)
Armon Gilliam
Freddie Banks
Marcus Banks
Spoon James (Credit whoever used to bring the spoon that lit up, I think it was the same people that would bring the hammer that would light up for Armon Gilliam)
Sidney Green

Brian Emerzian was just out of the top 10. I don't know why but I used to go crazy when he would get in the games!

Everyone would go crazy when Emerzian would get in.
 
I don't even know who that is lol
You could lose your Rebel Card for this offense...
Brian Emerzian was Tark's favorite walk on. An undersized Armenian kid who practiced hard, saw garbage minutes and won the fans over.
