The Arizona Wildcats, who are scheduled to stay in Maui through Friday afternoon, won’t play again until opening Pac-12 play on Dec. 1 at Utah.
LAHAINA, Hawaii – Oumar Ballo put a career game onto the highest possible early season stage in college basketball, leading the Arizona Wildcats to their third Maui Invitational championship with an 81-79 win over Creighton at the Lahaina Civic Center.
Ballo took full advantage. He raised a fist toward the UA fan section when he hit the 30-point mark on a dunk with 2:23 left that gave Arizona an 81-72 lead, though the Bluejays gave UA a scare afterward. Ramey fouled Creighton guard Ryan Nembhard with two seconds left. After Nemhbard made the first free throw, he threw the second one intentionally off the bottom of the rim, but Azuolas Tubelis picked it up and Arizona held on from there.
Leading 39-30 at halftime, Arizona went ahead by 13 early in the second half but Creighton went on a 9-0 run to pull within 47-43 with 15 minutes left.Ballo scored on the first possession of the game, peeling off to receive a pass under the basket from Kerr Kriisa after winning the opening tipoff, and finished the half by making 7 of 8 field goals. Azuolas Tubelis added another eight points.
