Watch Aussie College Basketballer Samantha Roscoe Score The Freakiest Three-Pointer Ever

Watch This Aussie Basketballer Score The Freakiest Three-Pointer Ever

From downtown!

This incredible long-range basket from Australian college basketballer Samantha Roscoe looks like the sort of once-in-a-lifetime trick shot you'd *maybe* pull off to settle an all-night showdown of NBA Jam with your best mate.

But no, this somehow-real-life moment happened in Roscoe's college match for North Dakota against Montana State... and made ESPN's Play Of The Day highlights (for obvious reasons).

Just days after Steph Curry shocked the NBA with his match-winning long-range three-pointer for the Warriors, Roscoe has outshone the world's best player with a ridiculous hail mary from well inside her own half.

Trailing just a point with the buzzer sounding at the end of the third quarter, Roscoe unleashes on a wing and a prayer... and somehow makes the bucket.

The Perth forward is in her junior year at North Dakota after completing her studies at Newman College in West Australia.
