The fact that Houston’s Emanuel Sharp didnt get a shot off reminded me just how remarkable Marcus Paige’s 3 to tie Villanova in the 2016 title game was. They were similar plays with a potential shot blocker charging at them

Will Richard just hit his 4th 3 of the half, Gators are 10-3 over his career when he's made at least 4 in a game. He hit 5 in their nearly epic rally at Georgia that came up short

Ja'Vier Francis has come off the bench and made some major plays for Houston 6 pts 3 reb 2 blocks in nine minutes. That's how u take advantage of your opportunity with Tugler sitting after his 2nd foul
