Cincinnati 77-75.
Melvin Levett`s dunk with one second left powered No. 15 Cincinnati to an upset of No. 1 Duke in the championship game of the Great Alaska Shootout in Anchorage.
Duke (5-1) threw a baseball pass on the inbound play that Elton Brand tipped to William Avery, who made what would have been the game-tying basket. But officials ruled that Avery did not get the shot off in time.
Cincinnati (4-0) worked a full-court play to perfection on its final possession. Ryan Fletcher hit Kenyon Martin with a long pass, and Levett took Martin`s pass in stride as he raced toward the basket for the game-winning dunk.
Levett led the Bearcats with 25 points, 14 in the second half. Pete Mickeal added 17, and Alvin Mitchell had 14, 6 in the last two minutes.
Avery, selected the tournament`s outstanding player, scored 30 points, 19 in the final 20 minutes.
With the score tied, 63-63, Avery drilled a 3-pointer with 4 minutes 23 seconds remaining. About 20 seconds later, Levett tied the score again with another 3-pointer.
Mitchell`s 3-pointer and a driving layup put Cincinnati up, 71-70, with 1:30 left. Levett was then fouled while hitting a corner jumper and converted the free throw to make the score 74-70.
On Duke`s next possession, Avery hit an off-balance 3-pointer to cut the difference to a point. Mickeal then missed two free throws, and with 13 seconds left, Mitchell made one of two free throws to make the score 75-73.
Nine seconds, later Avery hit a baseline runner to tie it again. |
