HONOLULU (AP) — Rashard Kelly grabbed a rebound and put back a short bank shot with 3.8 seconds left Tuesday night as No. 11 Wichita State overcame a sloppy night to beat Hawaii in overtime and reach the final of the Diamond Head Classic.
Ron Baker led the Shockers (10-1) with 17 points on another horrid shooting night, though he came up with a key block to send the game into overtime.
Hawaii (8-4) led 77-74 with just under a minute to go and took its last lead when Mike Thomas scored inside off an inbounds pass. Fred VanVleet missed badly on a 3, and Kelly was there for the game-winner.
Aaron Valdes and reserve Isaac Fleming led the Warriors with 17 points. There were 22 lead changes.
