Final Four: No. 2 Oklahoma

The spirit of March Madness is the magic that lays within. Every single year, there is a team or a moment that ultimately captures the truest essence of what the month is about and what it’s been created to mean.

In college basketball, there might not be a player that has more magic in him than Oklahoma’s Buddy Hield. Hield has made a career out of creating moments and this March, Hield will have his one shining moment for the Sooners and lead them to the Final Four.

He’ll do so in a battle against a formidable Oregon Ducks squad that will test Oklahoma with the best battle that they will have int he West Region. However, just like every great Oklahoma game this season, it’s going to come down to a big shot from Hield, who will once again remind everyone why there is not a better person in the clutch than him.

Not only will Hield lead the charge for the Sooners, but he will also have great play from Isaiah Cousins to help carry the load with him. At one point, this team was the No. 1 team in the nation and they will certainly look like it again by triumphing in the West Region.
