LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) -- Darnell Dodson scored 19 points and Perry Stevenson and DeMarcus Cousins added 11 each as No. 4 Kentucky beat Campbellsville 74-38 in an exhibition game Monday night.

Kentucky freshman guard John Wall, who sat out the game as part of an NCAA suspension for accepting illegal benefits from his former AAU coach, watched from the bench in a gray sweat suit. He will make his debut on Friday when the Wildcats play Clarion in another exhibition game.

Campbellsville, an NAIA school in southern Kentucky, shot 12 percent from the field in the first half as Kentucky built a 36-11 lead.

New Kentucky coach John Calipari promised some growing pains, and there were plenty as the Wildcats had 23 turnovers and were 3 of 14 on 3-pointers.
