March Madness: Top-10 Buzzer-Beaters

NCAA

4. Kansas’ Mario Chalmers (2008)

After Memphis guard Derrick Rose split a pair of free throws with 10.8 seconds to play in the 2008 National Title game, Kansas had a chance to tie with a 3-pointer and Chalmers came through.

Chalmers took a pass on the right wing, took one dribble and launched a three from the top of the key that went in to tie the game with 2.1 seconds to go. A last second heave by Memphis caromed off the backboard and Kansas went on to win the title in Overtime.
