    PARADISE ISLAND, Bahamas (AP) — King McClure scored all 15 of his points in the second half and No. 20 Baylor rallied from 22 down to beat No. 10 Louisville 66-63 on Friday in the Battle 4 Atlantis championship game.

    Johnathan Motley also had 15 points, and Terry Maston had 10 of his 12 in the final 20 minutes. The Bears (6-0) shot 65 percent in the second half in a stunning reversal from a start that saw the Cardinals shut down just about everything.

    Louisville led by 22 points late in the first half, by 20 early in the second and 54-42 on Quentin Snider’s 3-pointer at the 10:07 mark. But the Bears responded with a 21-5 run, with Motley putting the ball on the floor to drive by Anas Mahmoud for the go-ahead dunk with 2:11 left.

    Motley was selected the tournament MVP.

    Freshman Miles Bridges had 15 points for the Spartans (3-3). They shot 39 percent in the second half, going one of 10 on three-pointers.
