Down two with 17 seconds remaining in the game, SMU’s Sterling Brown rebounded a missed jumper from Cincinnati guard Jacob Evans. With the shot clock already off, Brown pushed the ball down the court, head faked his defender, and let a three-pointer go for the lead. The ball bounced off the right iron, bounced off the back iron and fell out. Ben Moore’s put-back layup also rimmed out. Cincinnati rebound, ballgame.
A missed three-pointer that left fans of both teams wondering how the ball did not go in – that is a heartbreaking way to lose a game.
