Georgia tops Mississippi 81-63 in SEC Tournament opener | |
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Rayshaun Hammonds knocked down his first of couple shots and kept firing to jump-start Georgia's impressive beginning to the Southeastern Conference Tournament. Hammonds had 22 points and 11 rebounds, and the Bulldogs shot 55% to beat Mississippi 81-63 in Wednesday night's opener of the tournament. Jordan Harris added 21 points and Sahvir Wheeler 15 for the 13th-seeded Bulldogs (16-16), who never trailed and led by 17 early in the second half. They shot 56% in the first half and made nine of their first 14 after halftime to halt a two-game slide that ended the regular season. MORE | |
