Derik Queen’s game-winner pushes No. 4-seed Maryland men’s basketball past No. 12-seed Colorado State, 72-71

With 3.7 seconds remaining, No. 4-seed Maryland men’s basketball trailed No. 12-seed Colorado State by a point — its season in jeopardy.

Jalen Lake had just hit a 3-pointer with six seconds on the clock, seemingly the end to a story the Terps knew all too well; their last four losses have come on game-winning shots with less than eight seconds remaining.

But when Maryland needed an answer most, Derik Queen delivered. He took an inbound pass at the top of the key, dribbled to the left block and unleashed a heavily contested running jumper. The shot banked in, and every Terp sprinted to the freshman phenom, bathing him in excitement.
