Jalen Smith 3
52-42

Great play by Ricardo Wright: playing with 3 fouls, he steps in front of Chandler Lawson and draws a charge — Lawson's third foul

Yes incredible play by Wright. Tied since 30-18.

Odigie looks as angry as I've seen him all year — went up for a rebound, got an arm yanked by Williams and rebounded the ball with the other. Williams wouldn't let go, and Odigie got pretty vocal with the refs.

He hit both free throws and got replaced by Ambrose-Hylton.

Memphis 56, SMU 45

Nutall leads both teams with 15 points

Davis upset again over another no-call

Wright drains a 3 for SMU

56-50

Wright picks up No. 4

Memphis 60, SMU 50

Davis goes up for a jumper, and looked like he almost triple-pumped while in the air.
Nutall is called for foul.
I'd never suggest the officials were wrong, but from my angle — and I had a pretty clear look — it looked like Nutall didn't come within a foot of touching Davis.
PonyFans enjoyed when KD missed the first of his two FTs.

Perry Clark called him a street smart basketball player.

Memphis shooting 37.8% (3/8) in second half, but SMU shooting 22.2% (2/9)

Davis called for his third ... and again, disagrees.

This time, he points up at the video board, as if to tell the officials to look at it for a review — officials love it when a player (or coach) visibly shows them up.

Worth remembering in a game that is 61-54 with 11:48 to go

Team fouls:

Memphis 18
SMU 14

Relevant because a PonyFan in a Reggie Roberson jersey just informed me that "Memphis committed too many fouls, too early" ... and that will be the reason SMU wins tonight

Zhuric Phelps hammered again on his way to the rim — gets up slowly
Misses to FTs (now 0/4 tonight)
Odigie whistled for offensive foul after grabbing offensive rebound

Zhuric is as tough as they get, but Lanier needs to sign multiple PGs in the offseason, or Phelps is going to the ER

Williamson is amazing — dives on the floor, loses battle for loose ball to Davis, but gets up quickly enough to force a bad pass upcourt. Wright steals, dribbles the other way and feeds Williamson for alley-oop dunk.

Memphis 65-58
