"The ball left my hands, and I hit the ground, and I didn't even see the ball go in. I just heard everybody going crazy, and everybody was jumping around. It was pretty cool, though."
"Honestly, there really wasn't time for nothing else. The ball was at half-court... I told them to go to the corners. And the play is just Zuby [Ejiofor] sets a lat ball screen at the top of the 3-point line."
Dylan Darling made a game-winning layup at the buzzer, securing a victory for St. John's Red Storm against Kansas in the NCAA Tournament. This win marked St. John's first Sweet 16 appearance since 1999. Despite not scoring earlier in the game, Darling requested a play be called for him. Head coach Rick Pitino initially hesitated but ultimately allowed Darling to take the shot. The moment was significant for Darling, who expressed excitement over the crowd's reaction after the shot.
