Mop boy almost scuppered this college basketball breakaway last night

Though it would have been fairly shameful had Devon Begley been blocked by this little tyke.

BASKETBALL IS A fast moving sport. So if your job is mopping up the sweat from underneath a basket then you better make sure there’s not a turnover coming.

That’s exactly what happened this mop boy in Charleston. Northeastern Huskies guard Devon Begley steals possession and thinks he’s clean through until an unexpected obstacle is placed in front of him.

Rather than embarrassingly getting blocked by a 12-year-old, Begley jinks beautifully past him before banking it in and giving him daggers on the way back.

The Huskies went on to beat the Cougars 65 – 56.
