A Clean Toss

Spotting a stray striped gym sock bunched up by the doorway, I immediately saw a shot worth taking. The mesh laundry hamper stood open three paces away, its rim just high enough to challenge a solid throw. I set my feet, crouched low, and scooped the thick cotton ball into both paws. It was heavier than expected, but steady form always wins out. With a deliberate pivot and a firm upward heave, I sent it arcing cleanly over the plastic lip. It dropped inside with a satisfying, muffled thud. A perfect swish on home turf. #Teddys_avencher
