Lamont Butler's buzzer-beating pull-up jumper secured San Diego State's 72-71 win over Florida Atlantic in the Final Four of March Madness 2023, sending the Aztecs to their first national championship game in program history. Butler's footwork was crucial as he narrowly avoided stepping out of bounds before hitting the game-winner.
