Video: Greg Monroe hits free throw with one eye closed
Greg Monroe was poked in the eye by Spencer Hawes last night, but still calmly stepped to the line and knocked down a free throw (although he missed the second) with one eye closed.
Monroe is actually the second Piston to have to shoot free throws with only one eye in the past week. I don’t have video, but Jonas Jerebko had to shoot after getting elbowed in the eye against the Kings. He didn’t have as much luck though — he missed both attempts.
