Razorbacks Defeat Aztecs in Third Place OT Thriller

MAUI, Hawaii (Nov. 23, 2022) — Travon Brazile led No. 9 Arkansas with 20 points to a stunning overtime 78-74 victory over No. 17 San Diego State in the third place game of the Maui Jim Maui Invitational.
 
Brazile boasted nine additional rebounds and teammates Ricky Council IV and Anthony Black added 19 and 15 points, respectfully. The Razorbacks trailed for most of the contest, but a late surge closed the gap and Kamani Johnson forced overtime at the buzzer with a second chance layup. 
 
Both teams started strong defensively with fast play and 15 combined turnovers but struggled offensively. Between both teams, they went zero for 16 beyond the arc in the first half. Arkansas shot 40%, touted 33 points from the bench and led for only 8:52, but it was enough to secure the victory.
 
Matt Bradley led the Aztecs with 23 points and seven rebounds.
