PJ Haggerty added 18 points, going 6 of 6 from the free-throw line in the final 10 seconds for Memphis (25-5, 15-2 American Athletic Conference). Nick Jourdain added 13 points and Colby Rogers scored 10.
Jonnivius Smith led UTSA (11-18, 5-12) with a season-high 18 points. Marcus Millender added 16, Primo Spears finished with 14 points and seven assists and Tai’Reon Joseph scored 12.
Rogers hit a jumper that gave the Tigers the lead for good almost seven minutes into the game and followed with 3 before Haggerty made a layup to cap a 13-1 run that made it 17-11. Smith hit a 3-pointer that trimmed UTSA's deficit to 23-21 with 8:35 left in the first half but Dainja answered with back-to-back baskets and the Roadrunners got no closer.
UTSA: The Roadrunners played swarming defense, keeping Memphis out of rhythm throughout much of the contest but went cold offensively down the stretch.
