What happened: The shot tied the game at 93 with 4.1 seconds left in the fourth. Dallas had trailed before the make and now must defend the last trip.

Why it matters: The make follows the same guard who scored 23 to lead Dallas on Sept. 24. A stop sends the game to overtime with momentum on the comeback side.

By the numbers: 93-93 tie with 4.1 seconds left; 3-pointer to tie; two collegiate game-winning buzzer-beaters for a national title.

What to watch: Watch the closing stand to decide overtime or a last-second winner.
