Part 2/17:
In the closing moments, Duke was inbounding the ball with just 10 seconds remaining, holding a two-point lead. A near-perfect pass from Duke's Caden Boozer was tipped away, allowing Yukon to seize possession. Freshman Brilan Mullins drained a deep jumper from nearly midcourt just four seconds after the recovery, clinching Yukon’s stunning one-point victory and ending Duke’s championship hopes. Travis reflects on the symmetry with Christian Laettner’s legendary 1992 shot over Kentucky—a reverse image of that historic moment, where Grant Hill, who threw Laettner the pass, was courtside calling the game. The scene was a reminder of how sports narratives are often written with drama and karma balancing out over the years.
