With just over 30 seconds left and Michigan basketball trailing by one to Ohio State, Zavier Simpson tried to make a play.

With Ohio State's Kyle Young defending him, the Wolverines' senior point guard drove to the basket with his left hand. He beat Young to the paint and put up a shot, as Young fouled him and the whistle blew.

Simpson hit the floor. Young stumbled, too. As Simpson fell, his right hand had caught onto Young's jersey — ripping through the cloth.
