Second-Half Surge Sends Memphis Past Tulsa

TULSA, Okla. – A second half for the ages helped Memphis erase a 15-point deficit and capture an 83-81 win over the Tulsa Golden Hurricane Sunday afternoon in Tulsa, Okla.

Memphis (10-8, 4-4 American Athletic Conference) shot 70.8 percent from the field in the second 20 minutes (17-24), missing just one two-point try. The Tigers only committed four turnovers after halftime and just nine for the game, a season low.

Playing without three of its top statistical contributors, Jalen Duren, Landers Nolley II and DeAndre Williams, the Tigers were led by Tyler Harris' season high 24 points with six 3-pointers.
