LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) Deonte Burton scored 21 points and Darrell Bowie keyed a second-half surge that carried No. 21 Iowa State to a 73-56 victory over Miami in the AdvoCare Invitational at Disney World on Friday.

The Cyclones (5-0) advanced to Sunday's championship game, bouncing back from a poor shooting performance in a tournament-opening win over Indiana State.

Matt Thomas had 12 points and Nazareth Mitrou-Long added 10 for Iowa State, which will face either No. 11 Gonzaga or Florida for the title.

Bowie hit an awkward layup as he tumbled to the floor and also hit a short jumper during a 17-2 run the Cyclones put together over an 8-minute stretch of the second half.

Ja'Quan Newton led Miami with 21 points. Backcourt mate Davon Reed added 13 for the Hurricanes, who shot 36 percent from the field, including going just 2 of 16 on 3-point attempts.
