70. Huggins' hug
It's an offbeat moment, but a poignant and memorable one nonetheless. During its 2010 national semifinal against Duke, West Virginia's Da'Sean Butler collided with Duke big man Brian Zoubek and crumpled to the court in Indianapolis with an apparent knee injury. Coach Bob Huggins walked over to Butler, knelt by his side and cradled his head, whispering heartfelt words to a player in need of them. Sure, Duke would beat WVU by 21 points and go on to win the national championship, but Huggins, while creating an indelible image, also won something that night: He won respect for his compassion. -- Teddy Mitrosilis
