LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Returning starters Gerald Fitch and Erik Daniels combined for 50 points to lead Kentucky to a 107-89 victory over Nike Elite on Tuesday night.

Fitch, a senior guard, scored 26 points on 10-for-16 shooting, and Daniels shot 12-for-21 and finished with 24 points, 10 rebounds and five assists.

Former Penn State player Brandon Watkins scored 21 points for Nike Elite.

Kentucky led 54-44 at halftime, stretched its lead to 20 points early in the second half and weathered a brief rally as Nike Elite closed within 10 points.
