Watch: Unreal Ending Propels JHX Hoops to TBT Victory

The Kansas Jayhawks alumni team playing in the 2025 The Basketball Tournament (TBT) advanced to the Round of 16 in unforgettable fashion.

JHX Hoops took down Kansas States Purple Reign 59-57 on Monday night inside Municipal Auditorium in one of the most improbable finishes in recent TBT memory.

Purple Reign led 57-53 and needed just one more point to reach the Elam Ending target score of 58.

Former K-State guard Shaun Williams had a fastbreak opportunity to seal the game, yet somehow came up empty on this wide-open layup: JHX Hoops capitalized, drilling back-to-back free throws to cut the deficit to 57-55 and later tying the score after a stop on defense.

A foul on the very next possession looked like it would end JHX Hoops TBT run, as Williams headed to the line again with a chance to redeem himself.

However, he missed both tries at the charity stripe, keeping the game alive and giving JHX Hoops yet another lifeline.

Purple Reign inbounded since JHX was unable to grab the rebound, but LaGerald Vick jumped the passing lane and took it coast to coast for the game-winner: It was a wild ending, fitting for what was a sloppy and physical game that featured 50 total fouls.

Vicks layup sent the KU portion of the crowd into a frenzy and secured one of the most chaotic walk-off wins in TBT history.

The victory sends JHX Hoops to the Round of 16, where they will take on No.

1 seed Team Heartfire on Wednesday.

Tipoff is set for 6 p.m.

CT and the game will stream live on TBTs official YouTube channel ..
