Fifth-ranked Kentucky survives Miami scare

  • Published Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2009, at 12:06 a.m.

Kentucky freshman John Wall scored 19 points — including the game-winning jumper with 0.5 seconds remaining — to lift the fourth-ranked Wildcats to a 72-70 win over Miami of Ohio on Monday night in Lexington, Ky.

After Miami's Kenny Hayes hit a three-pointer to tie the game at 70 with six seconds left, Wall raced down the floor and scored the game-winner.

Patrick Patterson had 17 points and 10 rebounds, and DeMarcus Cousins had 10 points and 10 boards for the Wildcats (2-0).

Nick Winbush led Miami with 26 points and the RedHawks nearly pulled off the upset thanks to making 15 of 26 three-pointers.
