Tramaine Isabell had 16 points, all coming in the second half.

RECAP

We received word just before tipoff that Namon Wright and D'Angelo Allen would be suspended for last night's game but would be eligible for the opener vs Wofford next Friday.

The two are expected to available when the Tigers take on Wofford, an NCAA Tournament participant last season, in Friday’s regular-season opener.

But the team didn’t miss them. Freshman guard K.J. Walton piled up a game-high 17 points on 6-for-6 shooting, including 4 for 4 from 3-point range, after joining fellow freshmen Terrence Phillips and Kevin Puryear in the staring lineup — along with junior guard Wes Clark and sophomore forward Jakeenan Gant.
