      LAHAINA, Hawaii  - Tim Hardaway Jr. had 21 points, Trey
Burke added 14 and No. 15 Michigan knocked off No. 8 Memphis 73-61
in the opening round of the Maui Invitational on Monday.
      Back in Maui for the first time since 1998, Michigan (4-0)
looked right at home in paradise, using its ability to penetrate to
shoot 54 percent while hounding the Tigers with a variety of
defenses.
      The two-time tournament champions move on to face the winner
between No. 6 Duke and Tennessee in Tuesday's semifinals.
      Memphis (1-1) backed up an easy season-opening win with a shaky
performance against the experienced Wolverines.
      Charles Carmouche led Memphis with 14 points.
