After a month-long hiatus, UCF guard B.J. Taylor made his long awaited return to the basketball court against East Carolina Tuesday night.
The timing couldn't have been better, with the Pirates smothering usually reliable 7-foot-6 UCF center Tacko Fall with triple and double teams in the low post and holding him scoreless for the first time this season.
Taylor brought his trademark physical play, driving the lane and drawing fouls to help the Knights hang on to beat ECU 48-45 at CFE Arena.
Overall, Taylor led both teams with 19 points and connected on 10 of 12 freethrows in 33 minutes of play.
