In our latest ACC buzzer beater, we turn the clock back to 2016 and Grayson Allen’s game winner against Virginia.

Duke was down 62-61 and with three seconds left, Allen drove hard to the basket. Mariel Shayok actually did a great job of contesting him without fouling but Allen got a shot off and banked it in for the win.

After the game, Virginia’s Tony Bennett told Coach K that he thought Allen traveled; Coach K thought that he was fouled. And not long after the game, Virginia fans protested that Allen’s foot was down when he shot.

Take a look again for yourself or the first time if you’ve never seen it.
