LYNCHBURG, Va. -- Reed Timmer scored 29 points and hit six of Drake's 15 3-pointers as the Bulldogs rallied to beat Wake Forest 77-74 on Friday night in the Paradise Jam.
It was moved from St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands to the Vines Center in Lynchburg due to damage from Hurricanes Irma and Maria.
Graham Woodward added 20 points for Drake (2-0), which used an 11-0 run to erase a 10-point deficit late in the second half.
"Every time we got down, we kept preaching to the guys, `Stick with it. Keep doing what we're doing and keep it simple on both ends," Drake coach Niko Medved said.
