Marcus Tsohonis scored 28 points and Aboubacar Traore added eight points, eight rebounds and had one of his three blocked shots in the closing seconds as Long Beach State rallied from a 17-point deficit to spoil the Southern California debut of Bronny James, 84–79 in overtime, on Sunday Dec. 10, in Los Angeles.
James, the son of NBA star LeBron James, was making his debut after suffering cardiac arrest in July. He finished with four points, three rebounds, two assists, and two steals in 16 minutes off the bench.
