Providence's Kris Dunn rolls in jumper at buzzer to beat Creighton image

If anyone was going to come through for Providence Tuesday night, it was going to be Kris Dunn. 

The 6-4 preseason All-American made Friars fans forget all about the team's lowest offensive output of the season when he got the friendly roll on a mid-range jumper at the buzzer to down Creighton 50-48 in Big East action.

Toby Hegner led Creighton (12-5, 3-1) with 11 points off the bench.
