The only two setbacks suffered by Arkansas came in back-to-back efforts versus Iowa State and Clemson, the latter going to overtime. Since bowing to the Tigers the first week of December, Arkansas has responded with five consecutive wins, the latest of those coming against Utah Valley over the weekend, 79-46. As for the Bulldogs, they too are off to a strong start to the season with nine wins in 12 chances. Since falling to Minnesota (66-62) during the NIT Season Tip-Off in New York in late November, Georgia has come out on top in six straight decisions, the latest being a 63-50 triumph over Norfolk State on Saturday. The Razorbacks lead the all-time series with Georgia by a count of 18-14, with the squads splitting two regular-season meetings in 2013-14 as each home team put a tally in the win column. The defense for Arkansas was all over Utah Valley, limiting the visitors to just eight field goals in the first half and nine after the break, all while forcing 15 turnovers and crushing the competition on the glass by a 55-30 margin. Alandise Harris came off the bench to post 17 points and five rebounds in just 15 minutes, while Bobby Portis came up a rebound shy of a double- double with his 12 points. The same goes for Michael Qualls who tallied 11 points, followed by Moses Kingsley with 10. For one of the highest-scoring teams in the nation (84.5 ppg), the Hogs are feeding off Portis and Qualls who have generated 16.8 and 15.4 ppg, respectively. Portis is not only shooting 56.8 percent from the field, he also paces the program on the glass with 7.8 rpg, which is close to what the rebounding margin is for Arkansas over the competition. Rashad Madden (10.3 ppg) has had his moments scoring the ball, but he is perhaps more recognized for his 70 assists in 13 games. Like Arkansas, the Bulldogs also put their best foot forward from a defensive standpoint as they held Norfolk State to just eight field goals in the first half and 29.2 percent success from the floor overall. At the other end of the floor, reserve J.J. Frazier lit up the scoreboard with a career-high 20 points as he converted 4-of-5 shots behind the 3-point line and 7-of-8 from the field overall. Charles Mann produced a double-double with 10 points and a game-high 10 rebounds, adding four assists along the way. One of only two players to have started all 12 games for the Bulldogs, Marcus Thornton finds himself at the top of the scoring list with 13.7 ppg and is also tops with 7.2 rpg, although having just 11 assists and 58.9 percent accuracy at the free-throw line can be seen as a drawback. Mann (12.7 ppg), Kenny Gaines (11.3 ppg) and Nemi Djurisic (10.9 ppg) help to push Georgia to 71.8 ppg. Deion Sanders Jersey .

Goran Dragic scored 26 points and Eric Bledsoe added 22, leading the Phoenix Suns to a 104-91 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers Wednesday night. "We always thought that was an advantage, having those two guys," Hornacek said. "One guy is not going, we put the other guy in the pick and roll. Obviously, they both played great." The Suns Miles Plumlee, who scored a total of 13 points in 55 minutes on the court as a rookie for Indiana last season, had 18 points and 15 rebounds in his first NBA start. "Things kind of went my way to begin," he said, "and the confidence just kept going." P.J. Tucker also scored 18, all but two in the second half, for Phoenix. Damian Lillard scored 32 points, including 6 of 12 3-pointers, for the Trail Blazers. LaMarcus Aldridge added 28. "They came out and they kind of shocked us," Lillard said. "They played at a real fast pace and their guards finished some tough shots. "They kind of got us out of position with that pace they played at. It was tough to guard them and it wasnt a help that we got off to a slow offensive start." Portland fell behind by 16 in the first half and 17 in the second before getting within five with 3:15 left. Lillard made his final 3 of the night, then after a Phoenix turnover Robin Lopez made one of two free throws to cut Phoenixs lead to 96-91, but Dragic made a pair of jumpers and the Suns pulled away, scoring the final eight points of the game. "I got a little worried there when it got down to five, especially with a young team to see how they react," Hornacek said, "but they made a couple of nice stops. That is key for us. When we get tops, we are able to fast break." Dragic and Bledsoe combined for 48 points, 15 assists and 13 rebounds. "He had it going, I had it going and whoever was closest to the ball was going to get it," Bledssoe said. Pablo Sandoval Jersey. Phoenix has just four players from last seasons 25-57 team. Bledsoe came in the trade that sent Jared Dudley to the Los Angeles Clippers. Plumlee was part of the Luis Scola trade with Indiana. The Suns used an early 14-2 run to go up 25-12. A goaltending call on Dragics layup after a Portland turnover made it 29-15. Gerald Greens 17-footer for the first basket of the second quarter gave Phoenix a 32-16 lead. Lillard finished the quarter with three straight 3s, the last at the buzzer, in a 9-2 spurt that reduced the Suns advantage to 50-46 at the break. Portland cut it to 52-51 on Nicolas Batums basket with 9:54 left in the third quarter, but 3s by Channing Frye and Dragic ignited a 12-0 run, with all five Suns players scoring, to increase the lead to 64-51 on Bledsoes layup after Fryes steal. Consecutive baskets by Marcus Morris gave Phoenix its biggest lead, 81-64, with 1:01 left in the third. Dragic was called for a foul on Dorell Wrights 3-point attempt with 5.4 seconds left in the quarter. Wright made all three, so Phoenix was up 81-69 entering the fourth. "All the things that weve been working on, we had a setback today," Trail Blazers coach Terry Stotts said. "Transition defence, we were slow reacting to that. Their guards did a good job of penetrating and we gave up too many shots at the end." Frye got the start because Markieff Morris was suspended for the game for throwing an elbow at Serge Ibaka in a preseason game. Frye missed all of last season because of an enlarged heart. He was in foul trouble much of the night and finished with seven points. Notes: Frye hit the Suns first 3-pointer of the season in the third quarter after they had missed their first nine. ...
