Banham at the Buzzer [merged thread]

Sounds like a book title. She had 60 in a game last week. Tonight she had 35, including 5-9 from the arc. The last one swished through the net as the horn went off. A 78-76 win for Minnesota.

No foul shots..she must a catch and shoot player. I bet exciting to watch.

Looks like a "pure" (stop or step back, jump with arms extended high above head, shoot with fingertips, follow through) jump shot shooter who has the strength to put it up from nearly anywhere. I hope that her knee doesn't shorten her WNBA career.

This is fantastic for WCBB. Don't miss the screen in the slo-mo at the end of the clip. Great stuff.

That was a clutch shot by Banham. Ice water in the veins.

 

[MilfordHusky]

That was positively Taurasian!

Rachel had 60 points in a game on Super Bowl Sunday, outscoring the Panthers and Broncos combined. She's averaging 26 ppg and moving up the NCAA career scoring list.

My bad! I don't know how I missed this. I think I might have to visit the eye doctor. Seriously though, my sincere apologizes to MilfordHusky.

Okay, I'm back. Yea, I needed glasses.
