UAB edges Charlotte on Lee's dunk with 6 seconds left
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- William "HaHa" Lee dunked a teammate's airball with six seconds remaining to give seventh-seeded UAB a 74-73 victory over No. 10 seed Charlotte on Wednesday night in the first round of the Conference USA Tournament.
Andrien White hit a baseline 3-pointer following a steal by Jon Davis with 12 seconds left to give Charlotte (13-17) the lead. Hakeem Baxter airballed a contested floater which Davis jammed through the hoop. White then had a good look at a 3-pointer but it went off the rim.
UAB takes on second-seeded Louisiana Tech in a Thursday quarterfinal.
Lee finished with 19 points, Chris Cokley 18 points and 13 rebounds and Dirk Williams 16 points for the Blazers (17-15).
