It's about the craziest (sorry, Cameronians) 15 seconds of basketball you'll get in the ACC, as Florida State's Michael Snaer connected with a buzzer-beating three-pointer to down Duke 76-73 just five seconds after the Blue Devils tied it up on an Austin Rivers layup. Credit Luke Loucks for the masterful court vision in getting down the floor and finding Snaer. [ESPN] More »

Everyone loves a good game-winning buzzer beater, especially when it travels almost the entirety of the court and catches nothing but net. Here then, is Lindsey Wilson College senior guard Chase Spreen putting a fork in Georgetown (not that Georgetown) College as the Lindsey Wilson Sports Network announcers express their disbelief. Good times. More »

Darius Morris hasn't seen much action for the Lakers this season—the rookie guard has tallied all of 55 minutes thus far—but you might be seeing more of him after this buzzer-beater in last night's 102-94 loss to the Clippers. That or it was just a fluke. (It was just a fluke.) [NBA TV] More »

There was a great finish—and just about as good of a call to go along with it—in the Oral Roberts-Arkansas Little Rock game last night.

Let's cleanse the palate a bit after all that high school basketball ugliness from earlier today. Here is the game as it should be. Down one with 11 seconds left. The poise, the confidence and the shot. The exhilaration of victory. The agony of defeat. And some lady, taking Fran Drescher's voice and having her way with it. More »

Jerrbryon Graves, a senior at Metropolitan High School in Indianapolis, hit this game-winning shot from behind half court on Saturday to win the regional finals, 64-61. It wasn't even a heave. Apparently, Graves takes these shots in practice all the time — which is only the kind of thing a coach hates until the kid makes one in a game. Metropolitan, which has only had a basketball program for four years, will play in the semistates on Saturday. More »

Coastal Carolina offers up a case study in where not to throw the ball on a full-court in-bounds pass with seconds remaining in a tie game: a rainbow into the middle of the court is never really a safe bet. UNC-Asheville, in its second appearance on this site in two weeks, defeated Coastal Carolina 61-58 on the road after Matt Dickey's last-second steal and bucket. More »

Last night against William & Mary, Hofstra's Charles Jenkins knocked down a three to send the game into overtime, and then launched a game-winning 35-footer at the buzzer for the win. And you thought you'd never see a bona fide highlight from ye olde Colonial Athletic Association. More »

Tyreke Evans nailed an honest-to-god game-winner from halfcourt. No lame first half buzzer beaters, no overturned on review horseshit. Just a desperation heave to save the Kings. Now watch, Evans will miss two months and Sacramento will lose 10 in a row. More »

If not for that pesky buzzer, Gilbert's rim-to-shot-clock-nothing-but-net heave would be that kind of thing that happens only when you escape the Wizards. (In Washington, the ball would have nailed a sick child in the fifth row.) More »
