GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Trevor Anderson scored 22 points and Kerem Kanter nailed a turnaround jump-hook with four seconds left to send Green Bay to a 94-92 win over SIU-Edwardsville in overtime on Monday night.

Green Bay trailed 92-89 with 58 seconds left after a Keenan Simmons dunk for SIU Edwardsville. But on the ensuing possession Khalil Small completed a 3-point play for the Phoenix to tie it up, drilling a jumper while drawing a Carlos Anderson foul.
