College Player Has A Crazy-Looking, One-Handed Free Throw Technique That Actually Works

Coming into the 2013-14 season, he made a radical change. He adopted a goofy, one-handed shooting technique that looks horribly awkward to the untrained eye.

"It was new to me. It took a little while to get confident in the form, but once that happened, it started working," he told the Washington Post.
