Dale Bonner, Adam Flagler, and Jaylen Ellis were all star athletes at Baylor University. They had been friends since their freshman year and had formed a strong bond both on and off the court.
During their senior year, they faced their biggest challenge yet: the NCAA National Championship game. The game was a nail-biter, with both teams trading leads throughout the match.
In the final moments of the game, Baylor was down by two points with only five seconds left on the clock. Dale inbounded the ball to Adam, who dribbled past two defenders and passed it to Jaylen, who was waiting at the three-point line.
Jaylen took the shot and it sailed through the air, the crowd holding its breath as it arced towards the basket. It hit the rim and bounced once, twice, before finally dropping through the net. The Baylor crowd erupted in cheers as the final buzzer sounded, and the three friends hugged each other tightly, tears streaming down their faces.
