    For the Tigers (20-10, 15-2), Williamson didn’t just score; he also dished out six crucial assists. Tejada had a strong shooting night, going 7 of 14 from the field, including 4 of 9 from beyond the arc. Meanwhile, Tomiwa Sulaiman contributed significantly, hitting 4 of 6 shots (with a pair of 3-pointers) and a perfect 5 for 5 from the free-throw line, finishing with 15 points.
