Every once and a while we see some truly incredible things in sports, with one story having the ability to captivate an entire nation. Zach Hodskins has one of those stories. The 17-year-old senior at Milton High School in Alpharetta, Georgia, is one hell of a player for his basketball team. His abilities come despite having a physical disadvantage to most of his opponents. But on a skill side, he usually has the upperhand.
Zach was born with only one arm. The Youtube star has perfected his right-hand game down to a science, easily toying with defenders and making them look silly with killer crossovers and perfectly-formed shots. Check out the realness below.
Yeah. This kid is that good. So good that he will likely play at the next level as a Gator in the University of Florida. That’s because , while he hasn’t been offered a scholarship, has a preferential walk on spot — he’s basically on the team.
But don’t think they’re doing him any favors or anyhting. This kid has earned the right to play some D-1 ball, with every bit of skill as any point guard in his state. One-armed or not! Still don’t believe the hype? He starts for one of the state’s top programs and shoots 50 percent from three point range. Check out some more of his highlights along with an interview below.
