OT: Should We Practice This Shot?

This is a YouTube Short so for best viewing click the 'full screen' icon in the bottom right of the screen. It's on a loop so it will continue to repeat until you end it.

Also, a short advertisement will likely autoplay before the clip, it's not deletable.

Can you imagine what the arena would have sounded like if this happened in a college game?

Paige tried that shot vs NCST at the end of regulation last year and it didn't work. LOL

All-important, especially if Nika is not playing. The present team has to have more practice on passing. That was the one glaring problem against Maryland and it can be improved with practice.

See Jalen Adams vs Cincinatti in best moments from UConn men. Almost that far.

The reason the passing needs work is cuz everyone is standing around. There needs to be more movement and screens

Caroline Doty used to practice (and make) shots like that one when she was recovering from a knee injury. She might be teaching the Wisconsin players how to make that shot right now.

I am impressed! An 8th grader going 70 feet underhand!? I got 9th & 10th graders that can barely toss the ball 7 feet. Pretty impressive.

Notice the three officials on the stage each holding both their hands
to their heads.... at the very end of the film clip. Priceless!

Sue Bird, at Gampel, made one at 5 or 9 ft long of half court at the half and then sunk the driving, off the glass game winner. Not as spectacular but as effective.
The answer to your question is ----YES. Everyone needs some luck.
Thanks for the video, fun watch

They also need to practice making layup and inbounding the ball. They have been having problems in those two areas for awhile.
