Johnathan Motley followed up his ordinary first half with an extraordinary finish and No. 11 Baylor dominated the late stages of 71-62 win against No. 10 West Virginia in Waco.
Motley scored 19 of his 23 points in the second half and became the catalyst for a 23-4 run swung the game after the Mountaineers led by eight.
