March Madness: Top 5 Plays Of Round of 64

1. Georgia State's RJ Hunter had the most crucial shot in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Son of Coach Ron Hunter, the junior guard sank a last-second three-pointer that knocked off both his father from his seat and the No. 3 seed of the West bracket Baylor, 57-56.

2. Notre Dame point guard Demetrius Jackson showed the viewers of March Madness flashes of Magic Johnson. Off a Notre Dame counterattack, Jackson busted a quick spin play then a behind-the-back dribble that lead to a no-look pass to Zach Auguste for the dunk. Northeastern had no chance to stop that play. Notre Dame advances to play Butler at 6:40 p.m. Saturday.

3. D'Angelo Williams showed Thursday why he'll be a first-round pick in the NBA draft. The Ohio State point guard danced and lost VCU defender Doug Brooks on a behind-the-back dribble, which put him on the floor attempting to steal the ball, leaving him with a wide-open bucket. Ohio State will face Arizona at 5:40 p.m. Saturday.

 4. Pac-12 player of the year Joseph Young threw down the most ferocious dunk so far in the NCAA tournament. The 6-foot-2 senior posterized Oklahoma State's Anthony Hickey off a give-and-go cut that helped the Pac-12 go four-for-four in the opening days of the tournament. Oregon will face No. 1 seed Wisconsin at 4:45 p.m. Sunday.

 5. Jahlil Okafor showed the college world that he is the best center in the country after scoring 21 points to help Duke cruise over Robert Morris, 85-56. His nicest dunk came off an alley-oop inbound pass to go up 49-30 over Morris early in second half. [VIDEO]

However, the freshman's missed dunk in the second half was the most trended topic on Twitter in the hour. He ticked off Coach Mike Krzyzewski so much with his show-boating that he benched him. Top-seeded Duke will face San Diego State at 11:40 a.m. Sunday.
