Bizarre story of an Oklahoma HS basketball playoff game and one player's game winning shot. Only problem was that he scored his shot in the wrong basket. At least he will will have an interesting story to tell his kids someday about how dad made the winning basket in the playoffs.
Shot in wrong basket gives Millwood stunning victory over Hugo
Gotta feel for the kid. This one will live on in his head for years.
Quote:YUKON — Hugo guard Trey Johnson bolted away from his defender, securing the ball with enough space to securely run out the final 2.9 seconds.
The Buffaloes led perennial state power Millwood 37-36 in the closing moments of Thursday night's Class 3A state quarterfinals. All they needed was an accurate inbounds pass to complete the wild upset. And they got it.
But what happened next, in one stunning moment filled with jubilation and arena-wide disbelief, flipped the end result on its head, leading to a 38-37 Millwood win and heartbreaking Hugo defeat.
