Robert Deutsch-USA TODAY Sports History is a funny thing, especially in this era of information presented in bite-sized chunks for maximum consumption.

Jalen Suggs, of course, made history. Suggs made the shot of a lifetime and one of the all-time great buzzer-beaters in NCAA Tournament history. It is the definitive shot of the NCAA Tournament, THE shining moment up to this point, and without a doubt, a regular occurrence in preview shows for years to come.
