Hi, your little friend is a male southern house spider, Kukulcania hibernalis species. Considered totally harmless, they lived in my place in Vegas.
2 other potential species in the Vegas valley are K. arizonica and K. utahana,
Yours is a bit the hairy sort, They are often mistaken for brown recluse, but those are not in Nevada.
Females may more resemble black widows, there are lots of those around.
(these spiders will eat widows.)

Can anyone tell us what kind of spider this was? It was in our bathtub this morning.
