What an ugly shot he has. Sad that he is he best scorer in Northwestern history. They must not have much of a history.

0 NCAA Tourney appearances. So no, they have not had a good history.

I've been thinking the same thing myself. In tennis, when an ATP pro hits a shot so clumsily as to look amateur, we call it "a Hacker's volley" (or overhead, or forehand, etc.).

I'm not sure what the hoops equivalent is, but Shurna definitely has a "hacker's stroke". Doesn't come anywhere NEAR to the traditional
"balance the ball against the side of one palm, 'push' it with the other
hand's fingertips"
motion. As Fish says, JS just seems to "shove" it forward with both hands
behind it.

Go figure. But somehow, it works (enough of the time).

The shot is just so ugly. He is quite the gangly fellow. He reminds me of Woody from Toy Story, but he makes more shots than he misses.
