Sometimes it's best to just let a ball go out of bounds.

North Dakota State sophomore Khy Kabellis tried to save a ball from bouncing out of bounds on the defensive end of the floor by blindly lobbing it behind his back, hoping that a teammate would grab the loose ball. Instead, he hit a three-pointer on his own team.

Fortunately for Kabellis, NDSU went on to beat Denver 81-63, and he scored a game-high 17 points on the correct basket.
