SALT LAKE CITY -- Facing an upset bid, Lorenzo Bonam kept hearing one mantra in his head.Be poised. Make the right play, the senior point guard told himself.Down the stretch, Bonam made a trio of clutch plays on Tuesday night to help Utah surge past Utah Valley 87-80. He also made one teammates dream come true.Within a span of 40 seconds, the senior point guard found Ty Rawson for a 3-pointer, drove for a layup and then assisted on a Parker Van Dyke 3-pointer with 29 seconds remaining.Van Dyke grew up near the Huntsman Center and came to countless games as a fan.It was a really special moment for me individually and just a great overall play, Van Dyke said. Lorenzo made a great pass and trusted me to knock it down. Ive seen a lot of games like that as a fan -- it comes down to the wire where a Utah player hits a big shot.Kyle Kuzma had 16 points and 12 rebounds for the Utes (6-1), who ended the game on a 12-2 run. Bonam and Rawson each contributed 14 points.Isaac Neilson had career-highs of 28 points and 15 rebounds for Utah Valley (5-3). Jordan Poydras, who had four 3-pointers, added 21 points on 8-of-12 shooting.Our guards did a wonderful job at getting to the gap and I found myself open and getting the ball at the right time, Neilson said. All I really have to do is focus on catching the ball and putting it in the hoop.Conner Toolson made a 3-pointer after a Nielson offensive rebound and Brandon Randolph made a shot in the lane to give Utah Valley a 78-75 lead with 2:04 to play.The Utes, who have been a poor 3-point shooting team (29 percent on the season), made 10 of 22 long-range attempts.The Wolverines typically launch more than 30 3-point shots a game and were pressured off the line by the Utes, but often found lanes to drive and kick to Neilson for layups. Utah transfer Kenneth Ogbe and Toolson are UVUs leading scorers but combined for just eight points in the game.In a scheduling anomaly, Utah Valley is the only in-state opponent for Utah this season. Last year, Coach Larry Krystkowiak bought out the Utes previously scheduled visit to BYU.The Wolverines led early in the game but the Utes scored 12 points off first-half turnovers and held a 41-36 edge at intermission.BIG PICTUREUtah: Next week the Utes hope to have transfers David Collette and Sedrick Barefield, who are expected major contributors, eligible to play. Besides their lone loss to then No. 18 Butler and their looming matchup with No. 13 Xavier, the Utes have feasted on lower-level competition at home. The games, which were mostly blowouts, have given the young roster a chance to gel and gain experience.Utah Valley: The Wolverines, who beat BYU 114-101, were close to another major in-state upset before the late fade. UVU shot 49 percent and had 19 assists, and seem primed for a stellar season in the Western Athletic Conference.QUOTABLEWhen Parker took that 3, I had a weird vision -- because I knew the kid grew up in Salt Lake and watching the Utes all his life with his grandpa -- and I thought, `Man, hes due. And as the ball is in the air, I just flashed back to all the times he probably watched other players years ago do those same things and it was pretty neat seeing it go in. He earned it, Krystkowiak said.STAT OF THE NIGHTUtah shot 12 of 13 from the line in the second half, including eight straight from Zamora. The junior made four in the final moments.UP NEXTUtah will play its first road game of the season on Saturday against No. 13 Xavier on national television.On Saturday, the Wolverines continue their local battles as they host Utah State.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Frank Mason III and Josh Jackson took it as a shot to their pride.Bill Self was just trying to win a game.The Jayhawks coach turned to a zone defense Tuesday night, a rarity for a guy whose hallmark is a relentless man-to-man, and that slowed down Georgia enough to give fifth-ranked Kansas a 65-54 victory over the Bulldogs in the CBE Classic championship game.I didnt think it was a hit (to their pride), Self explained, but you know, if you cant guard their bigs and you cant rebound out of man, we had to try to do something.On the other end, Mason led the way with 19 points, Jackson had 15 points and 11 rebounds and Devonte Graham contributed 14 points for the Jayhawks (4-1), who won their third consecutive in-season tournament title and second CBE Classic. They also won the event in 2012.Jackson, one of the nations top freshmen, was voted MVP.Kansas hopes its the beginning of a sweet ride at the Sprint Center this season. The Jayhawks face Davidson in the same building in a couple of weeks, then play the Big 12 Tournament there in March before the arena hosts an NCAA Tournament regional final, where they hope to earn a spot in the Final Four.Yante Maten had 30 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Bulldogs (3-2), but they were done in by 3-for-18 shooting from the perimeter, equally lousy foul shooting and turnovers that led to easy runouts.J.J. Frazier, who had been averaging 19 points per game, was held to two on 1-for-10 shooting.You have to make shots to win, Georgia coach Mark Fox said. We didnt shoot the ball very good. Give Kansas defense credit for that. But we shot the ball so poorly the first three-quarters of the game, we didnt score enough to get in position to win it.The zone defenses, which neither coach particularly enjoy, were a big reason for it. They slowed the game and turned it into a shooting contest.We havent really done it much so it was kind of new to us, Jackson said, but obviously it worked. For our pride a little bit, we really wanted to play man, but to win the gamee, we had to go zone.dddddddddddd.Kansas was a bit more efficient from the perimeter, slowly drawing away after trailing 20-19 with about 8 minutes to go, to forge a 35-25 lead at the break. The Bulldogs only made one of their final 16 field goal attempts, and their only scoring in the final 5 minutes came at the foul line.The lead was still just 42-34 with 16 minutes to go when Mason drove for a basket, the first of eight straight points for the Jayhawks. Mason added another basket, Jackson solved the Bulldogs zone for a dunk and Graham and Dwight Coleby finished it off to give K
