SAN DIEGO — You never know if you will be lucky enough to have One Shining Moment. You can be a redshirt freshman from Huntington, L.I., getting 76 seconds of garbage time at the end of a blowout at the hands of No. 1 seed Arizona, and all of a sudden the ball is in your hands.

It is the second game you have played all season, and you shoot a 3 from the left wing just behind the 3-point line.

And it banks in.

There are 53 seconds remaining.
