Octavius Ellis is going to regret his decision to try a dunk - as opposed to a layup - for a lifetime.

After Saint Joe's went ahead two points after a three from Isaiah Miles, Cincinnati raced back up the court before finding Ellis wide open for a dunk - only the play was waved off because Ellis had his fingers on the ball for a split-second too long before the buzzer sounded.

That left Ellis' go-ahead three as the game-winning basket.
