WATCH: Michigan Miracle, Wolverine freshman nails buzzer beater to end Houston’s season
Published:
Michigan is marching on in the 2018 NCAA Tournament thanks to freshman guard Jordan Poole.
Poole nailed a three as time expired to give his Wolverine team a 64-63 win over Houston Saturday night. Michigan now advances to the Sweet 16.
After making the shot, he ran around the court like a wild man. Here’s his explanation for the running around.
“I saw everybody celebrating,” Poole said according to ESPN, “and I always thought if I hit a shot like that, I didn’t want to get tackled. So I tried to avoid everybody.”
Here’s a video of the epic finale if you missed it late Saturday night:
