Alex Stein is currently
#1
in the nation in free throw percentage at 95.8%. For reference the leader in D1 shoots 93.6%. The leader in the NBA, JJ Reddick, shoots 94.5%. So, numbers suggest he is probably the best free throw shooter in the United States and maybe in the world.

He grew up in this gym. His father played his college basketball in this gym and now coaches the women. He has been shooting here since he could get a ball over the rim. Tonight was the last game in the PAC!
AND HE SHUT IT DOWN WITH A GAME WINNER!
