The Ole Miss men’s basketball team will travel to Columbia, South Carolina, tonight to face off against the South Carolina Gamecocks. The teams enter Tuesday tied for fourth place in the SEC. The winner will take sole possession.
The Rebels, who stand at 18-7 (8-4), are coming off their fourth win in a row, a 75-65 victory over Missouri in which they forced 25 turnovers.
Ole Miss picked up scoring contributions from Bruce Stephens and K.J. Buffen who scored 17 and 14 points, respectively. The two took advantage of increased roles due to foul trouble for Blake Hinson and Dominik Olejniczak, showcasing the Rebels’ depth beyond guards Terence Davis, Breein Tyree and Devontae Shuler.
