Point guards lead the way for LSU over Memphis: Final score, stats and analysis

LSU coach Will Wade likes being able to use two point guards on the court at the same time. It's why Tremont Waters and Skylar Mays have started together this season.

In LSU's first true road game on Thursday night, the two point guards led the way to victory against Memphis in a 71-61 win.

Mays hit back-to-back 3-pointers to give LSU a 48-43 lead with 14:34 remaining and Waters capped off the 12-0 run with a layup soon thereafter.

The duo combined for 32 points, six rebounds, 12 assists and five steals as Waters finished with 18 points, eight assists, four steals and one rebound while Mays had 14 points, five rebounds, four assists and one steal.
