Malik Monk was on fire all night in Kentucky’s game against North Carolina, but he saved his best highlight for the closing seconds of the game.

With 16 seconds left in the second half, Malik Monk, with a defender’s hand in his face, hit a glorious three-pointer to give the Wildcats the lead over the Tar Heels.

Here’s another angle that includes the always entertaining bench reaction.

Malik Monk had a monstrous night. He went off for 27 points in the first half and ended the game with 47 points. March Madness can’t get here soon enough.
