Texas guard Sir’Jabari Rice has played a key role in Texas’ success this season after transferring in from New Mexico State.
Rice earned Big 12 Sixth Man of the Year honors while scoring 12.9 points and 3.6 rebounds per game. He is one of the most efficient scorings options on the Texas team, helping guide the Longhorns to the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2008.
In the first-round matchup against Colgate, Rice scored 23 points on seven three-pointers.
Rice’s smooth shot fake has taken Longhorn nation by storm this season. He consistently can score off the pump fake as it allows him to rush past defenders for the rim.
Marcus Carr even called Rice’s signature move “the best fake in the history of basketball.”
Rice explains his thought process and everything that goes into his shot fake.
