No. 1 Duke led by two points, inbounding the ball with 10 seconds remaining. All they had to do was get the ball to the front court or draw a foul. Instead, No. 2 UConn turns the ball over at mid-court and freshman Braylon Mullins gets a look from the logo with 2.2 seconds remaining:
Duke led by 19 points in the first half. UConn advances to Indianapolis to play Illinois in the Final Four. The other side of the bracket has two 1-seeds going at it, after Michigan crushed No. 6 Tennessee, 95-62. They'll face Arizona.
My take: This is no "upset," with UConn a 2-seed and winning the national championship in 2023 and 2024. A terrific moment nonetheless. And few are ever sad to see misfortune befall the Blue Devils. A terrific second half in that game.
