Add to Favorite
Added to Favorite


Tamar Bates scored a season-high 29 points for Missouri to spark a 76-67 upset of visiting No. 1 Kansas on Sunday in Columbia, Mo.

Mark Mitchell added 17 points for the Tigers (8-1), while Anthony Robinson II scored 11 as Missouri beat its “Border War” rival for the first time since February 2012. Robinson and Bates both tallied five steals, as the Tigers forced 22 Kansas turnovers.

Josh Gray added seven points and 10 rebounds for Missouri, which saw its 24-point lead reduced to two before pulling away late. Missouri’s eight wins matched its total from all of last season.

Hunter Dickinson’s 19 points and 14 rebounds led Kansas (7-2), which will tumble in the AP Top 25 after losing its second in a row. David Coit scored 14 for the Jayhawks, followed by Dajuan Harris Jr.’s 13 and KJ Adams Jr.’s 11.

No. 2 Auburn 98, Richmond 54

Miles Kelly and Tahaad Pettiford scored 15 points apiece and the Tigers never trailed in cruising to a rout of the visiting Spiders.

The Tigers (8-1) bounced back from a disappointing showing at ninth-ranked Duke on Wednesday by placing six players in double-figure scoring and rolling to their third win by at least 30 points ahead of nonconference games later this month against Ohio State and Purdue. Kelly and Pettiford combined to shoot 8 of 15, and each made four 3s for the Tigers, who led by double digits most of the game.

Mikkel Tyne scored 16 to lead Richmond (4-5), which fell to 0-27 all-time against top-five opponents. Dusan Neskovic added 12 and Delonnie Hunt contributed 10, but the duo shot a combined 5 of 24 as Richmond shot 27.1 percent (16 of 59) in its first game since Nov. 27 and was unable to get its seventh win in school history over a top-10 opponent.

No. 6 Iowa State 100, Jackson State 58

Curtis Jones came off the bench to score 19 points and drain a handful of 3-pointers and the Cyclones marched to a win over the Tigers in Ames, Iowa.

Jones made 6 of 12 shots from the field and 5 of 10 shots from beyond the arc for the Cyclones (7-1). Milan Momcilovic finished with 18 points on 6-for-10 shooting, including a 4-for-6 mark from 3-point range.

Dorian McMillian scored 20 points to lead Jackson State (0-10). Juan Reyna III finished with 15 points and a team-high six assists.

No. 8 Purdue 83, Maryland 78

Braden Smith had 24 points and 10 assists to help the Boilermakers fend off the visiting Terrapins in Big Ten play in West Lafayette, Ind.

Smith led the Boilermakers with five 3-pointers and made 4 of 5 in the second half to help Purdue (8-2, 1-1) pick up its first conference win after losing 81-70 at Penn State on Thursday.

Derik Queen finished with 26 points and 12 rebounds — both game-highs — and Ja’Kobi Gillespie added 18 points for the Terrapins (8-2, 1-1). Maryland had won five straight, including an 83-59 home rout of Ohio State on Wednesday.

No. 9 Duke 76, Louisville 65

Cooper Flagg scored 20 points and grabbed 12 rebounds for the Blue Devils, but visiting Duke did not need its freshman phenom in the game as it rallied to beat the host Cardinals.

Duke (7-2, 1-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) trailed by as much as 30-16 midway through the first half thanks to the Cardinals’ making 10 of their first 14 shots, including seven of their first nine 3-pointers. Flagg, who fouled out in the final minute, led four Blue Devils in double figures. Tyrese Proctor went for 13 points, Kon Knueppel added 12 and James finished with 11.

Terrence Edwards Jr. led Louisville (5-4, 0-1) with 21 points. Reyne Smith added 13, and freshman Khani Rooths posted a season-high 10 points and six rebounds. Just seven players saw court time for Louisville as the team is dealing with several season-ending injuries that have cut short its bench.

UCLA 73, No. 12 Oregon 71

Dylan Andrews banked in a 3-pointer with 0.4 seconds left giving the Bruins a victory over the Ducks at Eugene, Ore.

Jackson Shelstad’s 3-pointer, his first basket in the second half, with 10.7 seconds left had put Oregon (9-1, 1-1 Big Ten) ahead 71-70. Nate Bittle led Oregon with 22 points and 10 rebounds. Keeshawn Barthelemy added 13 points, Shelstad had 11 and Jadrian Tracey 10.

UCLA (8-1, 2-0) is on a seven-game winning streak and is unbeaten after its first two games in the conference after leaving the Pac-12 Oklahoma State transfer Eric Dailey Jr. led the Bruins with a season-high 19 points on 7-of-8 shooting from the field. Kobe Johnson finished with 11 points and Andrews and Sebastian Mack each had 10 points.

No. 14 Cincinnati 84, Howard 67

Simas Lukosius scored 18 points for the Bearcats, who used a second-half surge to beat the visiting Bison.

Aziz Bandaogo scored 17 points for the Bearcats (7-1), who also got 14 points from Dillon Mitchell. Cincinnati’s top three scorers combined to go 20 of 26 from the field.

Howard (3-6) lost its fourth straight. Freshman guard Blake Harper got his first double-double with 23 points and 10 rebounds. Marcus Dockery added 14 points.

Arkansas State 85, No. 16 Memphis 72

Joseph Pinion scored 22 points, Dyondre Dominguez added 19 and the Red Wolves upset the Tigers.

Taryn Todd scored 17 and Kobe Julien had 12 for the Red Wolves (7-3), who made 12-of-36 3-pointers compared to 7-of-22 for the Tigers (7-2).

PJ Haggerty scored 29 points, Dain Dainja added 16 points and 12 rebounds off the bench and Colby Rogers scored 11 to lead Memphis, which trailed for all but two minutes.

No. 22 Texas A&M 72, Texas Tech 67

Wade Taylor IV racked up 19 points that included eight in the final 3:22 of the game as the Aggies outlasted the Red Raiders in the USLBM Coast-to-Coast Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas.

Texas A&M (8-2) led by as many as 11 points in the first half and by three at halftime before the Red Raiders surged to the front early in the second half. Down 52-49, the Aggies produced an 11-0 surge capped by a jumper by Zhuric Phelps to take a 60-52 advantage with 5:02 to play. Jace Carter added 16 points and Phelps had 12 for the Aggies, who have won four straight games.

Chance McMillian’s 23 points were a game high, while Kevin Overton added 17 and Darrion Williams had 11 for Texas Tech (7-2), which had a three-game winning streak snapped.

No. 25 UConn 76, Texas 65

Alex Karaban returned from a head injury to score 21 points and grab 11 rebounds as the Huskies beat the Longhorns in Austin, Texas.

Karaban sustained a head injury during UConn’s final game in the Maui Invitational. He did not play in UConn’s next two games while he was in concussion protocol. Solo Ball added 16 points for the Huskies (7-3), who received 12 points from both Samson Johnson and Tarris Reed Jr. Liam McNeeley finished the game with seven points and nine rebounds, and Hassan Diarra had a career-high 11 assists.

Freshman Tre Johnson scored a game-high 24 points for the Longhorns (7-2), who entered the contest on a seven-game winning streak. He scored 18 points in the second half. Arthur Kaluma had 20 points and nine rebounds, but no other Texas player scored more than six points.
