It hadn’t been the start King McClure could have wanted. A year removed from thinking his playing career might be over, McClure had just three points through five games. And with twenty minutes left in the Battle 4 Atlantis final, his team was well on the way to being blown out.
But something crazy happened in the second half. McClure—who had two more turnovers than points in the previous four games—suddenly found his shot. And the Bears began to chip away at a lead that once seemed insurmountable.
With 13:58 remaining in the Battle 4 Atlantis final, Baylor trailed Louisville by 16.
