1. UConn’s stunning win over Duke on Sunday is still the talk of the sports world, so I reached out to Ian Eagle, who nailed his call of Braylon Mullins’s game-winning three-pointer, on Tuesday about everything that went down in those final seconds and the aftermath. In addition to nailing his call, Eagle along with his broadcast partners, Bill Raftery and Grant Hill, went viral for their reaction to the shocking finish. Here’s another view. Unapologetically. Cannot get enough. pic.twitter.com/gOvzP6sbLx SI: How did the fact that there were .3 seconds left (later changed to .4 seconds) instead of it being a buzzer beater affect your call? Eagle: I’ve done so many basketball games in my career that I’m now at a point where I’m hyperaware of the clock. I probably made a mistake early in my Nets broadcast career calling something for the win only to see tenths of a second remaining on the clock and it bugged me.
