Jarod Lucas led the Nevada Wolf Pack men’s basketball to an incredible 77-74 away victory over the Colorado State Rams’ basketball team at the Moby Arena in a college basketball game with a laser-focused three-point shot.
The game took an unexpected turn when Isaiah Stevens tied the score for the Rams with just 2.5 seconds remaining, exciting the crowd of more than 7,000 fans in the arena.
However, the excitement quickly turned to disbelief as Nevada star Jarod Lucas banked in a 3-pointer from behind the half-court line at the buzzer, securing a shocking win for the Wolf Pack.
In a remarkable coincidence, a similar scenario unfolded in the NBA, as Max Strus of the Cleveland Cavaliers delivered an incredible 59-foot buzzer-beater. This shot sealed a 121-119 victory over the Dallas Mavericks, leaving fans stunned by the dramatic turn of events.
With more players stepping up to take clutch shots, reminiscent of the Steph Curry revolution, it’s refreshing to witness other players having their own ‘Dame Time’ moment.
The Wolf Pack’s victory not only exemplifies this trend but also propelled the men’s team to 4th place in the Mountain West division with an impressive 23-6 record.
