He went 6-7 from the field with 16 points, including the game-winning layup in the final seconds. Baker also had five assists and a pair of steals.

McKnight tried to respond with a jumper, but it missed. The offense turned to Baker again, and he responded by driving home the game-winning layup with just 2.4 seconds left on the clock. It was a close game throughout, but heading into the half, Miami put together a 12-2 run, leaving the Huskies facing a six-point deficit. That six-point lead was the largest lead of the game for Miami, while the Huskies’ largest lead was four points.
