ASU Basketball: Boatwright’s clutch triple sinks Sun Devils
With 14 ticks left on the game clock, and the Arizona State Sun Devils were just mere seconds away from their first road sweep under head coach Bobby Hurley.
Trojans’ senior forward Bennie Boatwright had other ideas. Catching a chest-high pass from redshirt junior guard Derryck Thornton, Boatwright sank a three point jumper, and the hopes of the loud Sun Devil faithful inside the Galen Center.
“They set a very good screen, and we didn’t get through it well enough,” said Hurley about Boatwright’s clutch shot. “He did get a very good look. He’s one of the better players in the league and in a big spot he made a good shot.”
