College basketball players spend a lot of time in their respective practice facilities, and it’s not always spent doing drills or running wind sprints.
That’s exactly what was happening when North Carolina State guard Scott Wood hit a crazy off-the-wall trick shot while having a little fun at the Wolf Pack’s practice facility. Wood threw the ball off a wall that was behind the hoop, the ball then went over the hoop, bounced once in front of the hoop and, thanks to some serious backspin, went straight in. A shot that probably took a LOT of tries.
According to the YouTube description, Wood made this shot twice before the camera was actually rolling.
Apparently, some Wolf Pack fans aren’t impressed with Wood’s trickery however.

Gottfried's misuse of his bench could cost team
On the surface, its pretty easy to suggest the reason North Carolina State lost 58-55 at Virginia on Tuesday night was because it lost point guard Lorenzo Brown for the game with an ankle injury midway through the first half.
After all, the junior playmaker has been the Wolfpacks best player and was off to a solid start against the Cavaliers. But even without Brown, the Wolfpack...
