CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- Jarvis Jones sank a 3-pointer from the left corner at the buzzer to lift East Tennessee State to a 70-69 victory over Charlotte on Tuesday night.

Charlotte led by two but DeMario Mayfield missed a pair of free throws with 8.6 seconds left. The Buccaneers pushed the ball up the court and Thomas Hubbard drove the lane and kicked the ball out to Jones, who spotted up and nailed a perfect shot that swished the net as time expired. Charlotte led by as many as 10 in the second half and held a four-point lead with 15 seconds left.

It was Jones' only basket of the night.

Marcus Dubose scored 26 points and Isiah Brown added 16 points for ETSU (3-1). Hubbard had 14 points and six rebounds.

Jamar Briscoe led the way for Charlotte (2-2) with 15 points.
