Myles Cale hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 9.5 seconds left in overtime and Seton Hall overcame Keldon Johnson’s half-court heave that tied the score at the regulation buzzer Saturday afternoon.
In one of the most exciting finishes of the season, Johnson had a chance to win it for the Wildcats (7-2), but his 3-point try with a second remaining was blocked by Quincy McKnight.
Myles Powell scored 25 of his 28 points after halftime for Seton Hall (6-3), including a tiebreaking 3 in the final seconds of the second half at Madison Square Garden.
The clock showed 1.1 seconds after Powell’s jumper went through, but officials put 1.5 on the clock after a replay review. PJ Washington inbounded from the baseline and threw a long pass to an open Johnson. He caught the ball near half court, turned over his left shoulder and hurled a right-handed shot that went in as the buzzer sounded, tying it at 70.
No. 3 Duke 91, Yale 58: Freshman RJ Barrett had 30 points, seven rebounds and six assists, and No. 3 Duke beat Yale, 91-58.
Fellow rookie Zion Williamson had 20 points for the Blue Devils, who led 41-32 at halftime but hit their first six shots after the break to finally stretch out the lead. Duke (9-1) shot 57 percent after halftime and 49 percent overall for its fourth straight win.
Duke also got a scare when freshman point guard Tre Jones came up limping with an apparent left leg injury, which sidelined him for nearly all of the final 14 minutes.
Miye Oni had 12 points and nine rebounds for the Bulldogs (4-3) before fouling out.
No. 5 Michigan 89, South Carolina 78: Jordan Poole scored 19 of his 26 points in the second half, and Michigan remained unbeaten.
The Gamecocks (4-5) scored more points than any team all season against Michigan. But the Wolverines (10-0) were ahead by six at halftime, and they led comfortably for most of the second half.
Iggy Brazdeikis scored 17 points and Jon Teske added 15 for Michigan. Chris Silva led South Carolina with 18.
No. 10 Michigan State 63, Florida 59: Kyle Ahrens scored Michigan State’s final seven points, including a two-handed jam with 8.7 seconds remaining.
Ahrens barely beat the shot clock with his baseline slam, giving the Spartans the final points in a game the Gators made close thanks mostly to freshman Andrew Nembhard late.
Florida (5-4) cut Michigan State’s lead to 56-53 on KeVaughn Allen’s 3-pointer with 3:24 to play, but Ahrens answered from the corner on the other end. Ahrens added a reverse layup on the Spartans’ next possession.
Marquette 74, No. 12 Wisconsin 69: Markus Howard scored 27 points, freshman Joey Hauser added 15 and Marquette grinded out the overtime win.
Sam Hauser had 13 points and 14 rebounds for the Golden Eagles (8-2). But it was his little brother, Joey, who came up clutch playing in his first game in the heated in-state rivalry.
Tulsa 47, No. 16 Kansas State 46: Martins Igbanu made a go-ahead jump hook with 1:51 remaining, lifting Tulsa to the victory.
Curran Scott scored 14 points for Tulsa (7-3), and Igbanu had nine points and six rebounds. The Hurricane got their second straight victory against the Big 12, also topping Oklahoma State 74-71 on Wednesday.
No. 17 Buffalo 80, St. Bonaventure 62: Jayvon Graves hit a career-best five 3-pointers and scored 19 points, helping Buffalo to another win.
CJ Massinburg had 14 points and nine rebounds as Buffalo (9-0) added to its best start to a season since going 15-0 in 1930-31.
No. 21 Villanova 70, St. Joseph’s 58: Eric Paschall had 14 points and nine rebounds, and Villanova earned its 25th straight Big 5 victory.
Joe Cremo and Phil Booth scored 12 points apiece as the Wildcats (8-2) continued their dominance of the long-standing city series with Philadelphia rivals Saint Joseph’s, Penn, La Salle and Temple. Jermaine Samuels added 11 points.
No. 22 Mississippi State 82, Clemson 71: Lamar Peters scored 28 points to lead Mississippi State to its fifth straight win. Quinndary Weatherspoon added 20 points for Mississippi State (8-1). Peters was 8 of 11 from 3-point range.
No. 23 Maryland 55, Loyola (Ill.) 41: Anthony Cowan scored 17 points and Maryland overcame a sluggish start. Cowan became the 55th player in Maryland history to score 1,000 career points, hitting the milestone with a free throw in the first half. Aaron Wiggins added 10 points for the Terrapins (8-2).
No. 25 Furman 74, South Carolina Upstate 60: Jordan Lyons had 20 points and Noah Gurley added 15 points and six rebounds, powering Furman to the win.
