Taking advantage of a light push-off and horrible in-bound pass from David Stockton, yep the son of NBA great John Stockton, Butler’s Roosevelt Jones hit a last second buzzer beater to beat No. 8 Gonzaga 64-63 from the Hinkle Fieldhouse.
What’s also impressive is Butler was playing without leading scorer Rotnei Clarke.
Butler, the former Horizon League Champions are now making their mark in the Atlantic 10. The Bulldogs now have wins over three top 10 teams including 13 victories in a row moving their record to 16-2.
Head coach Brad Stevens certainly has this team looking like they can make another long run in the NCAA Tournament come March.
