MIAMI -- Arizona State pulled a free-throw switcheroo on Syracuse and the officials, and the Sun Devils got away with it.
Orange forward Kristof Ongenaet fouled ASU guard Jamelle McMillan, a 58 percent foul shooter. But forward Rihards Kuksiks, a 75 percent shooter, stepped to the line. He swished both -- a rarity Sunday for the Sun Devils, who have hurt themselves at the foul line.
Just one more way ASU is somehow rope-a-doping its way through this game. The Devils are down 10 points, 57-47, with less than 11 minutes to play. Jeff Pendergraph is back on the floor, playing with four fouls.
