ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) Daiquan Walker scored 21 points, including Central Florida's final four in overtime, and the Knights withstood a career-night by Jordan Potts to take a 101-96 victory in overtime Tuesday night.

Potts made seven 3-pointers in scoring 35 points along with nine assists. His 3-pointer with four seconds left in regulation sent the game into overtime. Mario Moody added 19 points.

The Knights (6-4) worked their way back from an 18-point first-half deficit, opening the second half with a 22-4 run. UCF built a 17-point lead but then the Wildcats (4-8) rallied, finally knotting the score on Potts' 3-pointer to end regulation.

A Shaheed Davis basket, a Walker 3-pointer and Staphon Blair's free throw gave UCF a 97-91 lead in OT. Potts fouled out with 28 seconds left, sending Walker to the line for the first two of his final four free throws. Davis finished with 21 points.
