Bobby Durkin hits buzzer-beating 3 to lift Minnesota over Cincinnati 63-61
CINCINNATI (AP) --- Kyan Evans scored 26 points and grabbed 10 rebounds for
Minnesota, and Bobby Durkin hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to cap the Golden
Gophers' come-from-behind 63-61 victory over Cincinnati on Monday night.
Jaylen Crocker-Johnson hit a hookshot with 2:16 left, and Evans and Issac Asuma
each followed with a layup during a 6-0 spurt to pull Minnesota to 61-60 with
14 seconds left. Cincinnati's Myles Colvin and MJ Collins then each missed the
front on a 1-and-1.
Asuma grabbed the rebound off Collins' miss, dribbled a couple steps then
lofted a pass across midcourt to Durkin, whose deep 3 found the bottom of the
net. It was the Bearcats' first lead since 15:42 remaining in the second half.
Evans shot 11 of 19 and made three 3-pointers to go with five assists for
Minnesota (3-0). Crocker-Johnson added 11 points and Asuma finished with 10.
Tylen Riley scored 16 of his 25 points in the second half for Cincinnati (2-1).
Tyler Tejada added 10 points.
It was tied 30-all at the break and Cincinnati took the lead on Riley's
3-pointer with 14:03 left, and the Bearcats had their largest lead, 49-41 with
8:12 to go.
