COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) Amari Davis scored 15 points and Missouri Tigers outscored Eastern Illinois Panthers by 30 points over the final 28 minutes en route to a 72-44 victory on Tuesday night.
Jermaine Hamlin dunked with 7:36 left in the first half to put Eastern Illinois up, 17-15, but Gordon answered with a layup to spark an 11-0 run and the Tigers closed out the period with a 17-4 push for a 32-21 lead at the break.
Missouri (5-4) were an efficient 29-for-57 shooting from the field (50.9%), but was just 2 of 19 from beyond the 3-point arc.
DaJuan Gordon 14 added 14 points and Kobe Brown scored 11 points and grabbed 11 rebounds as the Tigers dominated the boards, outrebounding Eastern Illinois 42-21.
Hamlin scored 10 points off the bench and was the lone scorer to reach double digits for the Panthers (2-8).
Missouri plays at No. 8 Kansas Saturday.
