Video: Jalen Suggs sends Gonzaga to championship game on amazing buzzer-beater
Jalen Suggs delivered a March Madness moment for the ages to beat UCLA on Saturday in the Final Four.
Gonzaga was up 90-85 against UCLA with under a minute left. UCLA’s Jaime Jaquez made a 3-pointer, then the Bruins got a stop. Johnny Juzang missed a shot but got his own rebound and then put the ball back in to tie the game with 3.3 seconds left.
Just when you thought the game was headed to a second overtime, Suggs dribbled the ball down the court and pulled up for a final shot well beyond the 3-point line. He raised up and his shot went off the backboard and in for the win at the buzzer!

Unbelievable. That was a memorable moment few will forget.
