Bruce Thornton lands with the Houston Rockets with the No. 31 overall pick in the 2026 NBA draft.
Haven't seen anyone else call out this, but midway through the second quarter he makes an incredible sideline catch on a 3rd and 19. Most likely his best catch of the season. There was no replay that I could find for this, and that's a pity.
The reason being, I'm assuming is that it didn't convert to a 1st down because we were behind the sticks due to the stupid penalties. But still, don't know why they treated that so ho-hum.
I'm not even a 100% sure he was inbounds because at full game speed (espn's game replay video doesn't have a speed setting) you just couldn't tell.
If anyone has seen a clip of this on youtube(where I can slow it down) , please let me know. I can't find it.
But still more strong evidence for having confidence in our group if they try to blanket Smith again.
