McCormack, a junior who scored 20 points in a
win at TCU earlier this month, canned the first 3-pointer of his
career with 4:06 left to give Kansas a 50-43 lead. He scored 11
in the second half as the Jayhawks battled back after trailing
for more than 21 minutes of the game.
TCU (9-6, 2-5), playing its first game in 16 days following
three postponements, regained the services of coach Jamie Dixon,
who had not been with the team for several days after
contracting COVID-19 last week. Mike Miles led the Horned Frogs
with 18 points.
No. 1 Gonzaga 90, San Diego 62
Drew Timme recorded 21 points and seven rebounds to help the
Bulldogs remain unbeaten with a victory over the Toreros in San
Diego.
Corey Kispert added 19 points and eight rebounds and Jalen Suggs
added 17 points, six rebounds and three steals for the Bulldogs
(16-0, 7-0 West Coast Conference). Andrew Nembhard registered a
season-high 10 assists for Gonzaga, which overcame a slow start.
Finn Sullivan made four 3-pointers while scoring 16 points on
6-of-8 shooting for San Diego (2-7, 1-4), which lost for the
fifth time in the past six games.
No. 6 Houston 83, Tulane 60
Sophomore Cameron Tyson scored a career-high 31 points off the
bench as the Cougars rolled to their seventh consecutive
victory, routing the Green Wave in New Orleans.
The Cougars (14-1, 9-1 American Athletic Conference) made 13 of
32 3-point attempts. The Green Wave (6-5, 1-5) missed all 13 of
their long-range shots before halftime and finished 4 of 23 from
beyond the arc.
Tramon Mark added 16 points and Justin Gorham grabbed 15
rebounds for Houston, which defeated the visiting Green Wave
71-50 on Jan. 9. The Cougars never trailed despite playing
without leading scorer Quentin Grimes, who hurt an ankle in
practice. Jordan Walker paced Tulane with 16 points.
