Wis. Fan Earns $10,000 For Half-Court Shot

MILWAUKEE (AP) — One Milwaukee Bucks fan pockets $10,000 for making an unlikely shot.

Craig Wambold, of Dousman, was selected to compete in the Jackpot Shot contest during halftime at the Bucks game Wednesday night.

Two contestants shoot free throws and whoever makes the most has a chance to take a shot from half-court.

Unlike so many others who have tried the shot this season, Wambold sunk his basketball and walks away with $10,000 from Potawatomi Bingo Casino.
