CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Dezayne Mingo had 26 points and 10 assists, and Arden Conyers knocked down the winning 3-pointer just before the buzzer in the second overtime as the Charlotte beat Wichita State 104-100 on Saturday night.

Damoni Harrison scored 22 points, shooting 7 for 14 (4 for 10 from 3-point range) and 4 of 4 from the free-throw line for the 49ers (7-8, 1-1 American Athletic Conference). Anton Bonke shot 8 of 12 from the field to finish with 16 points, while adding 11 rebounds and three blocks.

Boyd converted a three-point play to make it 100-all with eight seconds left, but Conyers was fouled as he hit a straight-away 3 and made the and-1 free throw to cap the scoring.

Mingo hit a 3-pointer with 26 seconds remaining in the first OT that made it 91-all. Harrison hit a tying 3-pointer in the closing seconds of regulation. Giles missed a potential winning 3s at the end each of those periods.

Bonke scored 10 points in the first half and Charlotte went into the break trailing 41-36.
