CORAL GABLES, Fla. — Lamar Patterson came up with a big basket to help send the game to overtime. When overtime came, he took over.

Patterson scored 10 of his 25 points in overtime to help No. 25 Pittsburgh end a two-game losing streak with a 59-55 victory over Miami on Wednesday night.

“Being a senior leader I didn’t want to just become a ghost when it came to overtime,” Patterson said. “My team looked to me and I just wanted to come through for them.”

Patterson knocked down a 3-pointer, made a layup, and converted 5 of 6 from the free throw line in the extra 5 minutes for the Panthers (19-4, 7-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), who were coming off home losses to Duke and Virginia.

“A good win for us on the road,” Pittsburgh coach Jamie Dixon said. “Every ACC win is a great one and we’re excited about it.”

Cameron Wright added 12 points and nine rebounds and Talib Zanna chipped in 10 points for Pittsburgh.

“It’s been a last couple of tough games and we were able to duke it out this game,” Wright said.

Rion Brown had 21 points for Miami (11-11, 2-7), which has lost four of five, while Garrius Adams added 10 points.

Both teams shot under 35 percent in the game as Pittsburgh made 18 of 54 shots (33.3 percent) and Miami shot 34.6 percent.

Pittsburgh led 29-28 at halftime and neither team scored in the first 5 minutes of the second half.

“I think both teams were playing very conservatively in trying to get something going and the defense was pretty good,” Miami coach Jim Larranaga said.

Pittsburgh went up 37-30, their largest lead of the game, on a layup by Josh Newkirk, but Miami responded with a 12-4 run to take the lead.

Miami went just 1 for 6 from the free throw line in the closing minutes.
