Memphis Tigers guard Jayden Reid produced late heroics from the free-throw line to seal an 89-88 victory over VCU. The narrow win ensures the team maintains an unbeaten start to their campaign.

According to the Daily Memphian, Reid stepped up in the closing moments of the contest to put his team ahead. His decisive shots helped the Tigers navigate a tense finish and move to a 2-0 record this season.

The high-pressure contribution follows an earlier match where Reid played a similar role. In that game on Monday, the guard also came up big during the final stretch to help Memphis overcome Iowa State.

The Tigers showed composure under intense pressure against VCU to walk away with the one-point victory. Reid's clutch display continues to make him a vital presence for Memphis in close fixtures during the early part of the season.
