ST. THOMAS, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS (AP) - Murphy Holloway scored a season-high 20 points and Ole Miss pulled away late for an 80-69 win over TCU in both teams' final game at the Paradise Jam.
With the win, the Rebels claimed third place at the tournament and TCU finished fifth.
Ole Miss (4-1) also got 14 points from Jarvis Summers and 11 points apiece from Terrance Henry and Dundrecous Nelson.
J.R. Cadot led the Horned Frogs (3-2) with 15 points and 10 rebounds.
The Rebels led 35-33 at halftime before pulling away late in the second half.
TCU's Amric Fields hit a 3-pointer to pull the Horned Frogs within 65-59 with 3:20 left, but Holloway answered with a dunk and Nick Williams hit a 3-pointer to give the Rebels all the breathing room they needed.
Ole Miss, which was coming off a 30-point loss to Marquette on Sunday night, shot a season-best 60 percent (30 of 50) from the field.
"It was nice just to see the ball going in the basket," said head coach Andy Kennedy.
TCU shot only 42 percent (25 of 59) and committed 19 turnovers.
