After North Carolina took a 42-38 halftime lead, UNLV opened the second half with a 14-0 run as the Tar Heels missed their first 10 shots. The Rebels built a 77-63 lead on Lopez's basket off a rebound with 5 minutes 39 seconds left. Rebels fans stormed the court at Orleans Arena after the final buzzer. No. 2 Kentucky 87, Portland 63: Terrence Jones and Darius Miller scored 19 points apiece, Anthony Davis had 13 points and 12 rebounds, and No. 2 Kentucky routed Portland in the Wildcats' final tuneup before playing St. John's and No. 1 North Carolina next week.

No. 4 Connecticut 78, No. 22 Florida State 76, OT: Shabazz Napier hit a big 3-pointer with a minute left in overtime and finished with 26 points, leading No. 4 Connecticut to a victory over 22nd-ranked Florida State in the consolation game of the Battle 4 Atlantis. Napier also had five assists, four rebounds and two steals, bouncing back from a terrible performance in the Huskies' 68-63 loss to Central Florida Friday.

No. 25 Texas A&M 56, Texas A&M-CC 43: Elston Turner scored 14 points and No. 25 Texas A&M used its stifling defense to beat Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.
