UConn
March 2026

UConn beat Duke 73-72 on a last-second three from Braylon Mullins, overturning a 19-point first-half deficit to reach the Final Four. The Huskies produced one of the tournament’s biggest comebacks and ended Duke’s season in dramatic fashion. Mullins hit a 35-footer with 0.4 seconds left after a deflected Duke pass gave UConn one final chance. Tarris Reed Jr. led the Huskies with 26 points, while Duke wasted a strong night from Cameron Boozer and suffered another crushing late tournament collapse.

He was ramping up activity after the earlier injury but got hurt while dunking in practice. UNC had gone 5-1 without him and were nearing March’s key stretch, including a rematch with Duke and the ACC Tournament.
