Kemba Walker scored 29 points and Connecticut beat a Top 10 team for the second straight day, knocking off No. 8 Kentucky with an 84-67 rout to win the Maui Tournament on Wednesday night. Connecticut (5-0), the 2005 Maui champions, wore down second-ranked Michigan State in the semifinals and steamrolled the Wildcats with a massive run to close the first half. Alex Oriakhi had 18 points and 11 rebounds, and the Huskies shot 57 percent against one of the nation's best teams to leave paradise with a big trophy and bigger expectations.[IMAGE1]
