Somehow, someway, teams continue to forget about Ohio State's Sam Thompson on baseline inbound plays. The guy is one of the Big Ten's elite leapers and dunkers, so it only makes sense that opponents would account for him and keep him out of the lane. Right? Nope. The sophomore found a free path to the basket and poked home another inbound pass in Sunday's win over No. 5 Michigan State. Watch the play in this post.
