Florida Gators at LSU Tigers
Feb 22, 2025, 11:00 PM · NCAA Men's BasketballChinyelu's 19 points and 13 rebounds leads No. 2 Florida past LSU 79-65
Thomas Haugh scored 16 points, Alijah Martin added 14 and Walter Clayton Jr. 13 for Florida (24-3, 11-3 SEC), which won its sixth straight.
LSU freshman Robert Miller III scored a career-high 19 points to go with 10 rebounds and was the big reason the Tigers (14-13, 3-11) looked poised to challenge Florida well into the second half.
Florida raced to a 29-15 lead during the opening 13 minutes. But LSU suddenly found its footing when Curtis Givens III hit a 3, sparking a stunning 22-2 run during the final 6:41 of the half.
Florida surged into the lead for good with a 15-2 run that gave the Gators a 53-48 lead. Chinyelu scored seven points during that spurt, including a put-back as he was fouled.
Florida played its third game without starting forward Alex Condon and backup Sam Alexis.
LSU: The Tigers are showing the ability to compete in spurts against the SEC's elite teams, but closing out such games has been another matter.
