George Washington led Richmond with a few ticks left in regulation, but rather than let the Spiders tie the game with a three, Mike Lonergan told his squad to foul. However, Kendall Anthony anticipated the foul and did this:
Richmond forces OT vs. George Washington after HEY I’M SHOOTING A THREE foul

If we're being technical, Anthony was in the act of shooting when he was fouled. Yes, it was a one-handed hook shot-type thing from 40 feet away, but it was still a shot, and he was fouled during it, so, by the rulebook, this was a shooting foul. Anthony drilled all three free throws.
GW won in double OT.
