Probably The Luckiest Half-Court Shot You Will Ever See

We’ve all heard the phrase, “It’s better to be lucky than good,” but it usually only applies to the Jonas Brothers finding work.

Well, a Gonzaga student named Brad just threw his name into the hat.

According to SB Nation, Brad won a contest that gave him the chance to win $500. All he had to do was hit a half-court shot during Monday night’s game between the No. 22 SMU Mustangs and the No. 13 Gonzaga Bulldogs.

Obviously, Brad hit the shot, but before it went in, it first hit the top of the backboard and bounced roughly 15 feet into the air before finding its way through the net.



Brad’s lucky shot not only filled his pockets with enough cash to buy Domino’s for the rest of the school year, but it also earned him a “SportsCenter” Top 10 nomination. And that might have been enough to ensure he got lucky off the court as well.

Brad’s half-court shot was one of the most amazing things we’ve ever seen. This was pretty much the exact opposite: Probably the Worst Half-Court Shot Attempt Ever
