Internet Goes Wild Over Game Winning Shot at Boise School [Video]
So often when you see an insane, buzzer-beating basketball shot, it's on the likes of ESPN's SportsCenter or a social media platform. Usually, it's in a land far away--a national team, a collegiate program in the middle of March Madness, and more!
How often do we get to see crazy, miraculous, and insane buzzer beaters here in the Treasure Valley? Not too often.
Now that everyone has a camera in their pocket at all times--it's much more common to see these moments that do happen and that is exactly what went on at a local gym over the weekend.
The game took place at Capital High School--district tournaments are in full swing for high school girls basketball and this elimination game had a lot on the line! Kuna and Mountain View were facing off--and with only seconds remaining on the clock, Mountain View High School's Demi Thompson Lopez knew she had to take a shot and it needed to count!
Down by 1 point, Demi nailed a half-court shot that ended up advancing Mountain View and the crowd goes absolutely wild!
Let's break down the play!
