LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - Freshman Anthony Davis scored a
career-high 27 points and blocked seven shots to set a season
school record in No. 2 Kentucky's 86-63 victory over Arkansas on
Tuesday night.
The Wildcats (18-1, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) won their 10th
straight overall and extended the nation's longest home winning
streak to 46, including 45 straight at Rupp Arena.
Davis and the Wildcats jumped on the Razorbacks (13-5, 2-2) from
the start by taking a 10-2 lead and extending it to as many as 20
before halftime.
Davis, who had 14 rebounds, blocked his 84th shot with just
under 5 minutes left in the first half when he turned away freshman
B.J. Young's layup to set the record previously held by Melvin
Turpin and matched by Andre Riddick.
