The night Jason Yocum hit a half-court shot at the buzzer, two of his friends were killed in a car crash. He was supposed to be in that car.

This time Nick's co-host is the guest. Jason grew up outside Macy, Indiana, and played for North Miami. In the last regular-season game of his senior year, on the road at Culver Military Academy, he pulled up from half court with the game tied. He tells the story of that shot, the car he never got into, and how one night turned a kid most people called "least likely to succeed" toward basketball, school and coaching.

Also in this episode: the dad who turned a chicken yard into his first court, a hitchhiker his father picked up who may or may not have been D.B. Cooper, the coach who wouldn't let him coast, why he tells kids not to put all their eggs in the sports basket, and the Travis Tritt concert he wishes he'd gone to.
