Sam Cassell built his clutch reputation by making big shots for the Houston Rockets early in his career. When Sam moved to Minnesota he added the “Big Balls” dance to his game to let everybody know they can count on him when it matters the most. The retired Cassell was recently in Texas for Vince Young’s celebrity basketball game, and shot a Rick Barry style free throw to give his team a two-point lead in the final seconds. Clutch.. Barely.
Sam’s free throw didn’t matter in the end because the blue team got off a bad three attempt at the buzzer. Rumor has it that Vince wanted the game to be shirtless vs. skins but the other players shot the idea down.
