Jaylen Barford’s in-air acrobatics are truly special.
The senior finished with three incredible scores at the rim against Ole Miss on Saturday, including a sweet and-1 after gathering a loose ball at midcourt, wrapping the ball around his back between two defenders.
The Rebels’ Marcanvis Hymon, who committed his fifth turnover on the play attempting a dribble handoff, could do little else other than foul Barford on the other end. Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy described the sequence as a “winning play.”
"That’s an upperclassmen, a guy that is an all-league caliber guard making a play against one of our seniors,” he said.
