Shaquille O’Neal Shares a Reminder of How Michael Jordan Was a Magician With the Basketball After He Broke a Player’s Ankles Too Easily

David McCormack put Kansas up by 3 with 22 seconds left. And this happened after Armando Bacot twisted his right ankle and had to leave the court limping. This was a recurring of a previous injury that happened on Saturday against Duke.

The game had a wild ending as UNC couldn’t get a good look after McCormack’s basket. And with 5 seconds to go, DaJuan Harris stepped out of bounds, which gave UNC one last chance to tie the game. But they could not get a good look as Kansas smothered the inbound pass and their main threat, Brady Manek stumbled before the ball was inbounded. Love then shot an off-balance three which didn’t even hit the rim. The Kansas players rejoiced as they pulled the greatest comeback in NCAA Finals history.
