Zytarious Mortle's tip-in with four seconds left in overtime gave Texas Southern a 67-66 victory over Arizona State on Sunday in Houston.
Arizona State's Frankie Collins committed a turnover as time expired after dribbling the ball past midcourt.
Mortle's winning putback followed a miss by John Walker III and a failed putback attempt by Grayson Carter.
A jump shot by Collins with 56 seconds left in overtime gave Arizona State a 64-63 lead after Texas Southern took a 63-59 lead earlier in the extra period.

Texas Southern hosted its first Pac-12 opponent since 1993-94, when California and Jason Kidd visited.
Arizona State (2-1) was without starting forward Marcus Bagley because of his hard fall in Thursday's game against Northern Arizona. Bagley hit his head on the ground and sustained a hip pointer.

The teams traded possessions before Collins made a layup to give Arizona State a 57-54 lead with 1:08 remaining.
Henry made a 3-pointer with 32 seconds left to tie the game after Mortle grabbed an offensive rebound.
DJ Horne missed a jumper and Mortle was fouled while grabbing the rebound.
Mortle missed the front end of the one-and-one situation. Carter corralled the offensive rebound and tried a jumper that was off the mark before the buzzer sounded, sending the game to overtime.
It was a game of runs starting with Texas Southern going on a 12-0 run between the first and second halves to take a 32-28 lead.
Arizona State responded with a 12-2 run to go ahead 40-34 with 11:40 remaining in regulation.
