In Syracuse’s 71-63 win over Big East rival Pitt, Fair brought the crowd to its feet with a huge one-handed slam plus the harm. Scoop Jardine went up for a shot, but changed his mind in mid-air and passed off to Fair at the top of the key. Fair blew by his defender and dunked in the face of a Pitt defender.
