LOS ANGELES (AP) – After dominating the first 30 minutes, TCU cooled off and Nevada came on strong.
The 20th-ranked Horned Frogs still had enough left to hang on for an 84-80 victory Friday night in the Hall of Fame Basketball Classic, extending the nation’s best winning streak to 15 games.
TCU (10-0) never trailed while playing the last game of a tripleheader in front of a sparse, late-night crowd at Staples Center. Jaylen Fisher scored 20 points, and Kenrich Williams added 16 points and 11 rebounds for his 11th double-double during the streak.
“I was just trying to feed off my teammates, let them give me open shots and let their drive feed my drive,” Fisher said.
