Paige Bueckers did not think her half-court buzzer-beater at the end of the first half was a lucky make.
UConn head coach Geno Auriemma disagreed.
“She practices those constantly and makes a few, so it’s luck,” Auriemma said.
Whether or not it was luck is up for debate, but what isn’t is that Bueckers’ half-court make canceled out Jordan King’s 3-pointer that went in seconds earlier and ended all of Marquette women’s basketball’s momentum dead-stop.
