WEAR THE MOMENT: Virginia with the Miracle Play over Purdue

There’s 5.9 seconds to go and the Virginia Cavaliers are down three, but shooting free throws. What do they do? Well they’re playing in Louisville, where a lot can happen in a very little amount of time, so you know there’s a little bit of magic to happen.

Ty Jerome hits the first of his free throws. The second draws iron on the front rim, but Mamadi Diakite is there to tip the ball three quarters of the way into the backcourt, where Kihei Clark is there. Time is ticking, but Clark—a freshman—is cool as a cucumber.
