The creative inbounds pass gave the Wildcats the lead in the Sweet 16 showdown with the Spartans.
The action from Madison Square Garden in the Sweet 16 showdown between Michigan State and Kansas State just served up one of the best plays of the men’s NCAA tournament.
With 14:10 to go in the second half and the game tied at 50, Kansas State’s Keyontae Johnson made an insane basket off an inbounds play under the Spartans basket.
Johnson, who was struggling to find an open teammate, chose to pass the ball off the back of Michigan State forward Malik Hall.

The Sweet Sixteen tipped off on Thursday, and the marquee matchup to keep an eye on is the semifinal game between Arkansas and UCONN.

Hours after he was taken off the field on a cart following a knee injury, Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins has been diagnosed with a torn ACL in his left knee, the team announced Thursday.
No timetable has been determined for his return, nor has his surgery date been set. The team said that the procedure would be “reconstructive.”

The injury occurred during a spring training game against the Tigers.

Earlier Thursday, I wrote about “The Jordan Spieth Experience.” That generally means Jordan Spieth gets himself into ridiculous trouble and then gets out of it. “The Rory McIlroy Experience” is a bit different.
It generally involves McIlroy hitting golf balls farther than human beings should be able.
That was also on full display on Thursday afternoon.
Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland plays his shot from the sixth tee during day two of the World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play at Austin Country Club on March 23, 2023 in Austin, Texas.

The Florida duo cited their “Christian beliefs” as to why they didn’t sport the warmups.
Marc and Eric Staal did not suit up in Pride Night jerseys during warmups ahead of the Panthers’ game against the Maple Leafs on Thursday night.
The brothers cited their “Christian beliefs” as the reason for not wearing the special uniforms, saying in a statement that they wanted to keep the focus on helping the Panthers win this year’s Stanley Cup.
