From downtown... college player sinks 80-foot buzzer-beater

And Josh Henderson made it look easy.

VANDERBILT CENTER JOSH Henderson is not exactly known for his shooting from distance.

Indeed, the seven-footer had only attempted two three-pointers in his collegiate career before last night.

So he was the obvious choice to sink an 80-foot buzzer-beater to send his team in five points up at the half against Florida.

There are a couple of things that make this shot special. Firstly, Henderson doesn’t so much a take a step forward — never mind jump — he just fires the ball towards the basket.

And the trajectory is so low you’d wonder how it goes in at all… but it does.

Vanderbilt went on to win the game 87-74.
