WATCH: Robert Braswell's Improbable And-1 /

Robert Braswell had one of the highlight plays in Syracuse's 89-68 win over NC State. Syracuse was up by 15 with under nine minutes to play. A substantial lead but still plenty of time for the Wolfpack to make a run. Joe Girard drove and attempted to make a contested layup. His shot missed but Braswell was there for the offensive board.

Braswell was bumped after he collected the ball and flung the ball toward the hoop. It was a surprise he even got the shot up, but then the ball bounced around the rim and rolled in. A foul was called, the basket was counted as good, and Braswell made the subsequent free throw. That put Syracuse up by 18, and the Orange cruised the rest of the way.

Braswell played 21 minutes against NC State and extremely efficient during that time. He scored 11 points on 4-5 shooting include 2-3 from beyond the arc. He also grabbed three rebounds, had two steals and played strong defense against the Wolfpack.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting. EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans. After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years. Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports. Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more.
