Watch cheerleader make amazing half-court, front-flip shot

I think we’ve figured out a new event for next year’s NBA All-Star game. Forget the slam dunk contest. How about “Half-court shot while doing a front flip?�

If that happens, the NBA would have to invite cheerleader Ashlee Arnau to show them how it is done.

Arnau, 21, a cheerleader at William Carey University in Hattiesburg, Miss., made the incredible shot at halftime of her school’s game against Auburn-Montgomery.

One caveat: She has tried to make the shot at halftime of every home game since Christmas. Of course, making it on your 20th attempt is no less impressive than making it on your first.

You can watch a video of the shot above.
