But from the look and sound of it on You Tube, no one in the crowd could have scripted this game's finish

A basketball player with Downs Syndrome is to be praised and admired.A football player whose off-the- field “position” is that of “wide receiver”? Not so much.

DANG - dude is a better shot than I am. If I try a 3 pointer, I’m lucky to hit the backboard.

61-38 for the home team 42 secs left. Looks like the home team was whomping them, up fifteen when this kid came in with 2 minutes to go.
