Having already done everything asked of him—which was a lot—Florida Gators guard Walter Clayton Jr. scored his final points of the night while walking toward the Alamodome locker room. He autographed a 14-year-old kid’s white sneaker when the kid dangled it over the railing. You know you’ve made it big when someone takes off a shoe and asks you to sign it at the Final Four.
“I’ve seen it all year,” Clayton said, his demeanor even-keel as always. “It’s nothing crazy.”
