SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Emanuel Miller had 21 points and seven rebounds and No. 20 TCU beat Utah 75-71 on Wednesday night at the Utah Jazz’s Vivint Arena.

Mike Miles added 18 points for the Horned Frogs (10-1), and center Eddie Lampkin had 10 rebounds in his return from a back injury.

Gabe Madsen made seven 3-pointers and scored 26 points — both career highs — for Utah (9-4). Marco Anthony added 15 points and 10 rebounds, and Branden Carlson had 14 points and eight rebounds. The Utes have lost two in a row.

The Horned Frogs scored baskets on four straight possessions for a 27-17 lead late in the first half. Miller ignited a 14-2 go-ahead run with back-to-back baskets.

Utah erased the double-digit deficit early in the second half and tied it at 54 on Anthony’s layup. Anthony missed a free throw that would have given the Utes a one-point lead. Miller and Miles subsequently combined to score baskets on four straight possessions to put TCU back in front. A 3-pointer from Damion Baugh gave the Horned Frogs a 68-59 lead with 3:56 left.

THE BIG PICTURE

TCU: The Horned Frogs attacked the rim early and often with great success. 61% of TCU’s total points came in the paint.

Utah: Turnover troubles undermined offensive efficiency and kept the Utes a step behind for 40 minutes. The Horned Frogs ultimately scored 23 points off 19 Utah turnovers.
