Virginia guard Isaac McKneely led the comeback with under a minute left. He made a long 3-pointer with 46.4 seconds left and George missed the front end of a one-and-one. After a timeout, Jacob Cofie was left open for a dunk to pull the Cavaliers within 62-57 with 35.7 left.

Cofie forced a turnover on the inbounds play with 33.4 seconds left and McKneely sank another 3-pointer to get within 62-60. George made two free throws at 19.1 for a four-point lead.

McKneely had the ball knocked out of his hands on a drive to the basket and George added two more free throws to seal it.

Ndongo finished with 16 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks for Georgia Tech. George nearly secured a triple-double with 13 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists.

McKneely had 27 points and seven 3-pointers for Virginia (15-17), which had won 13 straight in the series.
