Forward Keyontae Johnson caught an inbounds pass with 0.5 seconds to go in the game.

With his team down by two, Johnson laid the ball up at the buzzer, and it found the bottom of the net — much to the dismay of the home crowd.

Johnson then clapped as if his late-game heroics would continue on to overtime while his teammates jumped and celebrated. They basked in their 6-foot-5 teammate’s clutch performance — except forward Kerry Blackshear Jr. — who stared blankly at his team while on the baseline.
