ORLANDO, FLA. – B.J. Taylor scored 17 points, 7-foot-6 Tacko Fall had a double-double and Central Florida held on to defeat Illinois 68-58 on Wednesday night to advance to the final four of the NIT.
A.J. Davis and Matt Williams added 16 points apiece for the Knights (24-11), who play TCU in a semifinal game Tuesday at Madison Square Garden. Fall had 10 points and 10 rebounds.
