Maryland men’s basketball missed shots, and Davidson made them. The Terps were poor on both ends throughout the opening game of the Asheville Championship, shooting 35.1% from the field, including 5-for-23 from three. Meanwhile, Davidson shot 42.9%, including eight of 15 shots from distance.
Despite a late Maryland comeback in the final three minutes, Donta Scott missed a defensive assignment, which allowed Davidson guard Bobby Durkin to drill a go-ahead three — his fourth of the game — with 9.4 seconds to go.
Maryland couldn’t score on the ensuing possession, and fell to the Wildcats, 64-61. It will play the loser of Clemson and UAB in the third-place game on Sunday.
