TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- B.J. Taylor made 10 of 11 free throws on his way to 25 points and handed out five assists to help UCF rally for a 71-69 victory over South Florida on Saturday.

Taylor, playing in his second game for the Knights (13-6, 4-3 American Conference) after returning from a foot injury that had sidelined him since the season opener, hit 3 of 4 free throws in the final 23 seconds, to help keep the Bulls (7-13, 0-7) winless in conference play. Chad Brown added 13 points and 10 rebounds for his second double-double of the season for UCF, which shot 53 percent (26 of 49) from the floor, but just 59 percent (13 of 22) from the foul line.
