March Madness Classics: Lamar Odom hits game winner in 1999 Atlantic 10 Championship Game to send Rhode Island to NCAA Tournament

This remains one of the indelible moments of Championship Week, and part of the reason why college basketball junkies like us at Roundball Daily love it so much. Lamar Odom hits the game-winning three as time expires and Rhode Island advances to the 1999 NCAA Tournament. Rams fans can reminisce on the days when Rhode Island was relevant as an NCAA power, before Jim “The Gambler” Harrick left for Georgia and more NCAA violations. This is the greatest moment in Rhode Island basketball history, and one of the greatest moments in the history of Championship Week. Enjoy, Rhodies.
