TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) – Bernard James scored 15 of his 18 points in the second half and No. 15 Florida State snapped Miami’s five-game winning streak with a 64-59 victory on Saturday.

Michael Snaer had 12 points and Ian Miller finished with 11 for Florida State (17-7, 8-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), which bounced back from a disappointing 64-60 loss at Boston College on Wednesday.

The 6-foot-10 James went 7 for 8 from the field in the second half and matched his career scoring high.

Kenny Kadji led Miami (15-8, 6-4) with 14 points and Durand Scott added 12, but Reggie Johnson was held to only two baskets in 28 minutes.

Florida State led 28-26 at halftime.
