Basketball-shooting robot wows at half-time of USA-France game
With no fans in attendance at this year’s Olympics, you would think there would be little need for an entertainment act at half-time.
Think again.
During Sunday’s basketball game between the United States and France in Japan, a 7-foot-tall robot was trotted out and displayed its mechanical shooting form. The robot drained shots from the free-throw line, above the 3-point break and at half court.
The robot scooted back to each line, but traveling wasn’t called.
