Knocking down 59% (and 50% outside) in the third, Austin overturned a double-digit deficit and held onto the lead through the final buzzer.
Justin Jackson led all scorers with 35 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 steals while Feron Hunt finished with 24 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 steals. Jaquori McLaughlin added 17 points, 7 assists, and Loudon Love grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds along with 8 points, 3 assists, and 3 blocks for Texas.
