Ebuka Okorie scored 26 points for Stanford (16-10, 5-8), which was in position for its second road win in four days until the final minute. The Cardinal won at Boston College on Wednesday night.

Wake Forest closed within 60-59 on two Omaha Biliew free throws with 2:30 left. The Demon Deacons were even at 61-all on Harris' lay-in.
On the next possession, Harris drove into the lane for an off-balance shot, giving the Demon Deacons the lead at the 54-second mark.
Stanford's Jeremy Dent-Smith missed an open jumper from inside the arc before Harris went 1 of 2 at the free-throw line. Okorie then forced a potential tying 3-pointer, with Harris rebounding and responding with two foul shots.
Stanford scored the final seven points of the first half for a 39-30 lead at the break.
Okorie and Gealer both finished with three 3-pointers. Stanford starters Donavin Young and Ryan Agarwal were both scoreless in 24 combined minutes.
