The Bulls knocked Ayton’s four-seed Arizona Wildcats out of the 2018 NCAA Tournament in a first-round upset back in March, holding the top prospect to 14 points on 13 shots in the process. Buffalo picked up its only March Madness win in program history in a 21-point romp — a fact the team’s official Twitter account made sure to remind Ayton of moments after he was drafted.

And then the Bulls reopened it, wrote another quick chapter, and shut it again. Of course, Ayton could still wind up with the last laugh.
