Indiana’s possession broke down on the final possession and with just two seconds left, the ball was still 30 feet away from the basket. Devonte Green flipped it over to Rob Phinisee, who sent up a desperation heave from deep behind the 3-point line—and knocked it down. Replay showed clearly that he got it off in time, and the Hoosiers prevailed over Butler in another Crossroads Classic thriller.
Butler got off to a hot start and managed to keep a slim cushion over Indiana throughout the first half despite Juwan Morgan scoring in bunches.
