FAYETTEVILLE — In need of a second-half spark on Saturday, Arkansas coach Mike Anderson called upon his toughest, most fearless player.
Desi Sills delivered.
Down six to Western Kentucky with 10:45 remaining following a Jared Savage 3-pointer, Sills scored six straight points in under two minutes to knot the score 62-62. Known more as a lockdown perimeter defender than a scorer, the former Jonesboro standout finished with a career-high nine points - all in the second half - in 16 minutes.
Sills (plus-2) was the lone Razorbacks reserve who was a net positive in the win.
