Despite being the underdogs, Arizona State came back from a deficit to defeat New Mexico in an intense college basketball game. The match showcased resilience and clutch performances, particularly from Basheer Jihad and BJ Freeman, who helped the team secure a comeback victory. The Sun Devils will now face unbeaten Saint Mary's in the Acrisure Classic championship.
Arizona State came into the game as 4.5-point underdogs, but looked like the superior team in the early going. The Sun Devils built a 31-18 lead in the first half behind 12 points from freshman guard Joson Sanon.
After Arizona State was assessed back-to-back technical fouls at the 10-minute mark — the first on Shawn Phillips Jr. and the second on Hurley — the Sun Devils elevated their intensity and climbed back into the game.
