'Horns game-winner inspires Strickland

Posted Dec 21, 2011
Dexter Strickland says he won’t ever forget Texas guard Cory Joseph’s game-winning basket last December — when the Longhorns freshman drove to the top of the key, pump-faked to get Strickland airborne, and spun to loft a shot with 1.4 seconds left that ultimately gave his team a 78-76 victory. The North Carolina junior calls the memory “heartbreaking.” But he also uses it for inspiration. (ESPN.com)
