With 5.7 seconds on the clock, Jamal Shead pulled down the rebound off a Johnny Davis miss, dribbled the length of the court and delivered a perfect pass to Kyler Edwards, who was standing just a few feet to the right of the basket.
What could have been the easiest layup of Edwards’ life to send Houston and Wisconsin into overtime in the semifinals of the Maui Invitational in November, never actually happened because by the time the ball left Shead’s hand’s the backboard lit up red, signifying the clock had hit triple zeros.
Shead held his hands above his head, angry at himself for his poor time management.
