With 3.6 seconds on the clock, Lin, who had been hovering on the far side of the court, took the inbounds pass at his own three-point line.
Sprinting down the right side of the court, he dribbled once, then again. Lin was bumped hard on the left hip by a leaping William & Mary player at midcourt, but the referees swallowed their whistles—and so the guard continued on with one more dribble.
His ears buzzing with the revelry he had just incited, Lin sprang up from the court and dashed backwards towards the hoop he had been under less than five seconds ago.
The Crimson would build on that momentum over the next two months, setting a school record in non-conference wins with 11, and William & Mary would have a noteworthy season of its own.
It could not come up with a stop when it needed it the most, setting up a most memorable ending that began a historic season for Harvard basketball.
