Thon Maker drains back-to-back threes

Australia’s Thon Maker scored his first points as an NBA player today and didn’t he do it in style.

Some people were left scratching their heads when he was taken at a surprisingly high no.10 in the NBA Draft this year by Milwaukee Bucks.

But after these two three-pointers in less than a minute against the Pacers, in just his second NBA game people will be taking notice.

Even better he did it after sitting on the bench for the entire match. When called up, late in the fourth term he came onto the court and did not hesitate to shoot from the three-point line, twice. Nothing but net both time.

The crowd went into raptures, the commentators could not quite believe it and he announced himself to the NBA.
