Buzz Williams ditches team to help FT contest participant image

Buzz Williams earned his first ACC Tournament win as head coach of Virginia Tech on Tuesday night, an 81-80 triumph over Wake Forest.

On Wednesday night, his young team had a slightly more difficult opponent on their hands in Miami. With his team trailing 35-34 with under 10 minutes left, Wiliams huddled his team together during an official's timeout.

Then Williams, always one to forge his own path, decided to help coach a young girl competing in a free-throw contest rather than coach up his team.

Buzz Williams is the best.
