Getting your player ready...
Tired of watching his players miss layups a child could make, Texas Tech basketball coach Pat Knight invited a young boy from the stands to join the team in a huddle. Knight asked the boy if he could make layups. The boy said he could. “I was just tired of having 18- or 21-year-olds miss layups that a 12-year-old could hit,” Knight said, “so I brought a 12-year-old in to let them know that he could hit layups. He’s 12, and he can hit layups, so why can’t you when you’re 18 to 21?”
