Adding to the moment for Stevenson and the Gamecocks offense, Stevenson had hit two previous three point attempts within the last three minute stretch of the game. His miss just off the rim bounced around for a moment before being scooped up mid-run by Stevenson, giving him the momentum he needed to go to the rim aggressively for the finish.
South Carolina went on to win in the SEC matchup, improving to 12-7 on the year, despite just a 3-4 start to conference play.
