For one more day, for one more moment, Kim Anderson and the Missouri Tigers live on.
We know what the end will be. Next season Missouri will have a new basketball coach, but for one more night, this is Kim Anderson’s team, and his team showed the remarkable fight they’ve shown all season long, despite the longest odds.
Given just a 28% chance to win according to the KenPom numbers, Kevin Puryear had an incredible performance, Cullen VanLeer had the best shooting night of his career, and Frankie Hughes found the bottom of the net on two of the biggest three’s of the season and his young career.
