NEW ORLEANS - The "big three" of Jay Hook, Louis Dabney and Jonathan Stark teamed up to score 33 points for the Tulane men's basketball team, but a late jumper by Memphis' Austin Nichols spoiled the Green Wave's return the Smoothie King Center in a, 57-55, Tigers victory on Saturday night. After Green Wave (13-7, 4-4 American) junior guard Dabney, who finished with 10 points, tied the game at 55 with a free throw with 0:31 left, Nichols hit a fall away jumper of the left side with 3.1 remaining on the clock to lift Memphis (12-7, 5-3 American) to the victory.
