Niwot’s Drake hits nearly full-court buzzer beater against Mountain View
Niwot senior Jonny Drake hit a one-handed buzzer-beater from way beyond halfcourt on Tuesday.
With 1.6 seconds left in the first half of Niwot’s boys basketball game against Mountain View, Miller took an inbound pass from the sideline opposite of the benches. Without dribbling, he heaved the ball with his right hand from a spot two feet beyond the opponent’s free-throw line.
The shot hit the back of the rim and dropped in — and stunned the crowd. It took them a moment or two to realize what happened before they erupted.
The 3-pointer cut into Mountain View’s lead to make it 21-18 at halftime, and Niwot went on to win 44-39.
