This morning, a former Badger basketball legend hit a shot that may remind Wisconsin fans of something.
With his Turk Telecom squad, one of the top teams in Turkey and all of Europe, down one against Limoges, Dekker made back to back plays to seal a win. First, the Wisconsin legend nailed a go-ahead three with just under ten seconds left:

He followed that up with a steal on the ensuing inbounds pass that clinched a big win in the Basketball Champions League, one of Europe’s top basketball competitions featuring teams from all over the continent.
Did the spot he hit that shot from remind you of anything in particular? Let’s just say Dekker owns the right wing when it’s winning time:
