Dan Hurley's UConn Huskies lost their opening game at the Maui Invitational in a nail-biter, falling to Memphis 99–97 in overtime. But the final result was overshadowed by Hurley's antics on the sideline.
Throughout the game, Hurley berated officials and had numerous meltdowns. He had to be held back by assistants a number of times, and was eventually issued a technical foul, far later than most believed he should have been.
