南佛罗里达球员Kendall Puryear罚球像掷铅球:动作视频疯传 两罚全失仍砍12分9篮板

11月2日,在佛罗里达州Tampa的Yuengling Center,南佛罗里达大学女篮在新赛季揭幕战中以80比54大胜Furman大学。比赛本身没有悬念,赛后在社交媒体上疯传的却是主队球员Kendall Puryear的一次罚球:她的出手动作不像投篮,更像掷铅球。据福克斯新闻与USA Today旗下For The Win报道,这段画面迅速走红,被网友形容为「离谱」。
据福克斯新闻报道,第二节还剩3分54秒时,Puryear站上罚球线。她先像常规投篮一样屈膝起势,随后却把右臂向后一收,像掷铅球那样把球从肩侧推了出去,两次罚球全部偏出。这也是她本场仅有的两次罚球。尽管罚球动作出圈,她全场打了28分钟,拿下12分、9个篮板和3次抢断,是球队大胜的功臣之一。
这个动作并非全无来历。据For The Win援引她在普渡大学时期的官方简介,Puryear本身就是一名铅球运动员,在家乡密苏里州的铅球选手中排名第一。For The Win猜测,她职业生涯罚球命中率约为57%,这次可能是在尝试一种新的出手方式,或是正在调整投篮动作,后续要看本赛季她的罚球表现是否改善。
Puryear现年为大三球员,身高6英尺3英寸,主打前锋。她前两个赛季效力于普渡大学,2025-26赛季场均得到6.6分、3.2个篮板,本赛季转学到南佛罗里达大学。她高中时曾入围麦当劳全美明星赛提名,并入选「密苏里小姐篮球」奖的决赛名单。《体育画报》的晨间栏目SI:AM也把她的这次罚球列入大学篮球揭幕夜最值得一提的五件事之一。
South Florida's Kendall Puryear Goes Viral for a Shot-Put-Style Free Throw: She Missed Both but Still Finished With 12 Points and Nine Rebounds
On November 2 at the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida, the University of South Florida women's basketball team opened its season with an 80-54 rout of Furman. The game itself was one-sided, but what spread across social media afterward was a free throw by Bulls forward Kendall Puryear: her shooting motion looked less like a jump shot and more like a shot put throw. According to Fox News and USA Today's For The Win, the clip quickly went viral, with fans calling the form "diabolical."
According to Fox News, Puryear went to the foul line in the second quarter with 3:54 left in the first half. She took her time and jolted upward as if about to shoot normally, then cocked her right arm back and chucked the ball toward the basket from her shoulder. She missed both free throws, the only two she took all game. The form did not spoil her night: in 28 minutes she finished with 12 points, nine rebounds and three steals in the Bulls' win.
There is a backstory to the motion. Per her Purdue bio, cited by For The Win, Puryear is herself a shot put thrower who was ranked No. 1 in Missouri, her home state. For The Win noted that she is a career 57 percent free-throw shooter and speculated that she may be trying something new or working on her mechanics, adding that it remains to be seen whether her free-throw shooting improves as the season goes on.
Puryear, a 6-foot-3 junior forward, spent her first two college seasons at Purdue, where she averaged 6.6 points and 3.2 rebounds during the 2025-26 season, before transferring to South Florida. She was a McDonald's All-American Game nominee and a finalist for Miss Show-Me Basketball in Missouri. Sports Illustrated's SI:AM newsletter also listed her free-throw form among the five most interesting things from college basketball's opening night.
