Julian Strawther hit a three-pointer with 7.2 seconds left to answer a three-pointer by UCLA’s Amari Bailey, lifting Gonzaga to a wild 79-76 win over UCLA on Thursday night in the Sweet 16.
“It’s moments like that you can’t make up,” said Strawther, a Las Vegas native. “Those are literally the moments you dream of. To even make a shot like that in March Madness and just to be back home in Vegas is like the cherry on top.”
