AND-ONE!
Watching Chen Yan hit the extra free throws, Chance Moss couldn't help but sigh, that three-point shot just now was considered in vain.
On the Kansas offensive possession, Chance Mosley missed a throw-in with a blocked shot and Darrell Arthur grabbed the rebound and drew a foul.
One free throw hit and the second bounced off the rim.

One step outside the box, Chen Yan chose to force a start against Brande Rush's defense!
Brandon Rush is staying tight to Chen Yan's side and he's not missing a beat in this defense.
However, what he didn't expect was that Chen Yan actually suddenly slowed down his pace the moment he stepped forward!
Brandon Rush had gotten used to Chen Yan's fast rushes tonight, and was a little less comfortable with his sudden slowdown in the face of it!
Slow three-step layup, Chen Yan this goal looks very easy to write!
Rush takes the ball and sends it quickly and quickly!
Julian Wright's layup was straight up mercilessly capped by Durant!
Wright has great hardware with a 203c frame plus a 219c arm!
Wright has arguably bullied a lot of players in the NCAA with his static talent, except this round he's met a static talent that's even more exaggerated than his...
After denying Julian Wright a layup, Durant hands the ball off to DJ Augustin.
DJ Augustine didn't even run the ball and passed it directly to Chen Yan, who was the only thing in this toolman's eyes tonight!

"Tonight Chen was giving it his all on the offensive end, and it looked as if he was planning to settle the game all by himself!" Kenny Smith said from the commentary box.
"Kansas looks like a good offensive efficiency in this period, but the point difference in turn is getting wider and wider, they are eager to chase points in turn ignore the most important defensive problems, a little bit of the cart before the horse." Barkley analyzed.
"That's right, Kansas pursued too much speed, leading to too many gaps in the back line and giving Chen too many opportunities to hit the basket on direct fast breaks."
Just as the two commentators were analyzing the match in a serious manner, the fans on the sidelines suddenly stirred.
It turned out to be the big screen at the Toyota Center that read, NCAA Tournament single-game scoring high of 61, created by Austin Carr, from the University of Notre Dame.
In the first round of the 1970 NCAA Tournament, Austin Carr took on Ohio University for Notre Dame, where he scored an insane 61 points from inside and outside the arc!
It is also known as the most difficult record to break in 'March Madness'!
First of all the NCAA full game is only 40 minutes, each round of the offense time is even 35 seconds, and the NBA compared to not only less game time, but also slow pace.
NCAA tournament is equivalent to the elimination stage of the NBA, all the teams are competitors to carry out in-depth and thorough research, on the court is to fight the stabbing, after all, who do not want to be eliminated at this stage to go home, so that the youth have regrets.
So on some level, it's even harder to break the NCAA Tournament single-game scoring record than it is to score 81 points by a hot man!
But at this very moment, there is a man on the scene who is infinitely closer to that record!
The camera gave Chen Yan a big close-up, and then a line of small words appeared under his close-up image:
Chen Yan, point guard, University of Texas, shot 25/32 from the field, 1/3 from 3, 6/9 from the free throw line, and is currently scoring 57 points.
When Chen Yan received the basketball from DJ Augustine, the whole stadium erupted into a thunderous chorus of unanimous shouts!
"Vote!"
"Vote!"
"Vote!"
All the fans at the scene stood up and chanted for Chen Yan to shoot!
Fans will want to witness the birth of a new record in this one!
Kansas took the sack play straight up!
If really let Chen Yan break the single-game scoring record, for Kansas is absolutely a hundred years of school shame ...
Rush and Wright left and right toward the Chen Yan package, Durant has opened his hands in advance, ready to receive Chen Yan pass!
Chen Yan first held the ball and retreated two steps, while constantly observing his teammates running position, in the moment when Rush and Wright posted up, Chen Yan suddenly a speed!
Using changes in rhythm and footwork, he drilled his way through the middle of the two men.
Survival in the cracks!
The package also does not pass, Chen Yan has completely killed crazy!

To make a super long three at this record-breaking moment?
If the shot goes in, it will be a classic play in NCAA history!
Chalmers and Rush didn't hesitate and went straight for a flying tackle.
Both are desperate, it's no longer a question of whether or not they can win the game, it's a question of whether or not they'll be completely nailed to a pillar of shame!
It was only the moment the two men's feet left the ground that they realized they had been duped ah!
Chen Yan made a throwback move after lighting the two up!
Air contact with two bodies and then throws the ball high in the air!
"Clunk!"
It didn't go in, but the referee's whistle blew!
The referee signaled for a Kansas defensive foul and Chen Yan was awarded three free throws!
"VP!!! VP!!!"
"VP!!! VP!!!"
The moment he stepped up to the free throw line, the entire crowd chanted 'VP' in unison!
Chen Yan conquered the Toyota Center with his individual performance!
Chen Yan could clearly feel the floor of the stadium appearing to tremble slightly, but what was more violent than the floor trembling was his own heart!
Tens of thousands of fans shouting their VP, this scene that Chen Yan had fantasized about countless times really happened!
The Kansas players were speechless, it was clearly a neutral court, why did they feel like they were playing on the road?
After letting out a deep breath, Chen Yan struck out with a penalty.
"Swish!"
The basketball went airborne and into the net, and it was solid.
Immediately after that, Chen Yan shot his second free throw.
"Swish!"
The screams of the fans in the stadium were a few degrees higher, and the hit meant that Chen Yan had tied the NCAA Tournament single-game scoring record!
The entire stadium held its breath before the third free throw was made, except for the Kansas fans who were trying their hardest to make noise that interfered with Chen Yan.
Chen Yan squatted, puckered his ass, raised his elbow, and struck out!
The first shot of the basketball hit the rim, but it wasn't a big problem, and after a couple of upsets it still went well into the basket!
With three free throws, a new single-game scoring record for the NCAA Tournament was born!
...
...
With 2:01 left in the game, Kansas HC Searf finally pulled all of his starters and raised the white flag.
Looking at the nearly 30-point spread, Selph understood that his second-half plan to play against the clock had failed.
Not only did the plan fail, but he also accomplished Chen Yan in a way.
As a sign of respect for their opponent, Texas HC Rick Barnes also pulled all of his starters.
The game is officially in garbage time!
Chen Yan's stats for the game also ended up at 62 points, 4 assists and 5 rebounds.
When Chen Yan came off the field, the whole stadium of fans gave the loudest applause, and there were even some hardcore Texans who shouted until their voices were muffled!
After all, can fans not be excited to watch this kind of scoring performance, which has been a rare occurrence in the NCAA for decades?
On the sidelines, the always gentle head coach Rick Barnes and Chen Yan had a big hug!
The teammates also gathered around Chen Yan and celebrated with their hands!
This game is destined to go down in history and all members of both teams will be a part of it.
It was a great moment not just for Chen Yan personally, not just for Texas, but for the NCAA as a whole!
"The game was basically out of reach as Texas and Kansas teamed up to give us a great game!"
"Chan scored a record-breaking 62 points, and I wonder if the Kansas players will dream about this guy tonight."
"If I dream it, I think the odds are it's a nightmare too."
"Hahahahaha!"
The craziest and most fervent part of the game was over, as Barkley and Kenny Smith joked around in the commentary booth for the last two minutes of the game.
The two then chatted about some of Chen Yan's off-court antics.
Kenny Smith smiled and said, "According to previous news reports, Chen was reported by the opposing head coach after scoring 20 points in the first game of March Madness, and the tournament organizing committee ended up conducting a urine test on him, so I don't know if the staff will raid him again tonight."
Barkley first gave a puzzled expression after hearing this, then let out a gasp, "HAT? 20 points and you have to be arrested for a urine test? Then won't Chen be dissected tonight?"
