AUBURN, Ala. -- Mustapha Heron scored 20 points to lead Auburn to an 89-78 victory Saturday over Missouri in the regular-season finale for both teams.
Auburn (18-13, 7-11 Southeastern Conference) built a 20-point lead in the first half and shot a season-best 56.1 percent.
Heron missed only his seventh and final shot and made all three of his 3-point attempts to help hand Missouri (7-23, 2-16) its sixth straight loss. The two teams will meet again in the first round of the SEC Tournament.
T.J. Dunans scored 16 points before fouling out when he and Jordan Geist were called for a double technical late after jawing at each other.
