The Kentucky Wildcats' season came to an end last night at the hands of the #1 seeded UNC Tar Heels in a dramatic game that was won in the final seconds.
After UK's Malik Monk drained an improbable three to tie the game with seconds remaining, UNC drove the length of the floor and sophomore forward Luke Maye buried a long jumper to give the Tar Heels a 75-73 win and a trip to the Final Four in Phoenix.
After the game it was an emotional scene in the Wildcats' locker room as reporters spoke with freshman phenom De'Aaron Fox who was brought to tears while reflecting on their season.
"That shot is just playing back and forth in my head," Fox said. "It's going to be difficult to get over."
Fox is expected to declare for the NBA Draft and is certain to be a lottery pick alongside teammate Malik Monk, but that was the last thing on his mind last night.
