Terrence Williams put back his own miss with 0.4 seconds left, giving Charlotte a stunning win over No. 14 Michigan on Sunday in the final of the Puerto Rico Tip-Off.
"That's one of the most incredible basketball games I've ever been a part of," Charlotte coach Alan Major said. "They deserve this."
The title is the 49ers' (5-1) second early-season tournament win in two seasons. They won the Great Alaska Shootout last season.
Michigan's Mitch McGary tied it at 61 on a layup with 9 seconds left, but Charlotte quickly pushed the ball up the floor. Williams missed a layup but got his own rebound and scored.
