This Full-Court, Bouncing Shot From A High School Basketball Game Is Bananas
Lewis Palmer high school junior Anna Olson heaved this shot almost the entire length of the court in the final moments of the third quarter (though enough time remained to take the ball up court) against Cheyenne Mountain high school in Colorado. Or, she at least tried to heave it the entire length of the court, managing to come up the perfect amount of space short. The ball then bounced up toward the rim, rattled around, hung on the lip for just long enough and then fell in. It's kind of like Tiger on 16 at Augusta, only high school basketball in Colorado.
The video appears to have been uploaded to YouTube by her coach, Joel Babbit, and in the comments he claims the shot was counted as three points. USA Today, however, says it should count as two points, but it's got to be worth way more than that.
