Memphis's one free throw attempt is the record low since the shot-clock era was introduced in 1954-55, according to STATS. Memphis players were astonished to see only one free throw on their stat line.

The Jazz came right back to the unfazed Williams and his back-to-back 3-pointers sparked Utah to a 94-89 win over the Miami Heat. ''I can't think of a bigger win than this one,'' said Williams, who scored 23 points.

''Going to Indiana State and Northern Iowa back-to-back, that's a chore for anyone,'' Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall said.
