Two wins away from destiny, top-seeded and undefeated Gonzaga was on the brink of suffering one of the biggest upsets in tournament history against No. 11 UCLA. Instead, freshman phenom Jalen Suggs saved the day.
Gonzaga beat UCLA, 93–90, on Suggs's buzzer-beating three-pointer in overtime to maintain its perfect season and advance to its second national championship game in program history.
UCLA led for most of the first half before a late run gave the Bulldogs a 45–44 lead at the break. The second half was back-and-forth the entire way, with several lead changes down the stretch.
