Jordan Peele hilariously accepted kudos for Poole
Michigan freshman Jordan Poole hit the shot of the tournament on Saturday when his circus shot from 3 downed Houston at the buzzer.
As expected, Poole's phone was blowing up after the game. It turns out Oscar-winning comedian Jordan Peele had the same issue.
On Sunday, Peele took to Twitter and accepted all the congratulatory messages meant for Poole after that Michigan buzzer-beater.
All those hours spent in the gym certainly paid off. Oh, wait.
The actual hero from the Michigan-Houston game noticed the tweet, and it's fair to say that Poole was pumped about the shoutout.
