No. 3 Maryland’s Destiny Slocum finished the Terps’ first half against No. 6 West Viginia with a bang on Sunday.
With just over 4 seconds left on the clock, the ball was inbounded to Slocum who was standing just outside the Terps’ 3-point line. The freshman caught the ball and did a two-hand, full-court heave – kind of like a throw-in in soccer – and it went in!
This may have been the most impressive buzzer beater of the NCAA Tournament so far. You have to see it to understand just how impressive this shot was:
The Xfinity Center crowd went wild and Slocum, mouth open in shock, looked like she couldn’t believe she made the shot. Shortly after, her teammates mobbed her and buried her in hugs and congratulatory slaps on the back.
Maryland finished the half on a 28-8 run and led West Virginia 35-22. Slocum has made a 3-pointer in 24 games in the 2016-17 season and has recorded two double-doubles.
