honestly, it looks doctored, the t-shirt never starts going down, there's alot of drag on a rolled up t-shirt, i don't think anyone could throw one that far

Here is a full video of the throw moron, including the guy in #20 jersey catching it: YouTube Video

And here's an interview where she is asked about that throw going viral: Kelsey Plum interview

B/R: So with this clip of you throwing alongside the Spurs' T-shirt cannons that went viral, did you anticipate the response at all?

KP: No, I was so genuinely surprised. I came to the game and they asked me if I wanted a T-shirt gun. I was like, "Nah, I'll throw 'em!" It was funny because when they said, "The No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft, Kelsey Plum!" people were like "Woo-hoo!" and then when I threw the shirt out, people were like "WHOOOOAAAAA!" They went crazy, like it was so much cooler that I could throw a shirt than it was that I was the No. 1 pick. But I didn't care, so I just kept throwing them further and further—I didn't think it was a big deal.

The next thing you know, I get a text from my cousin, like, "Yo, you're on Worldstar." And I really didn't know why! But then I looked, and it was like, "Really, the T-shirt?" So I just said [on social media], "Throw like a girl." Basically my dad had put me in baseball when I was a kid—I was a pitcher.

It is funny that I didn't notice her form the first time around. She actually has a lot more distance potential. She is using a shuffle step (former outfielders will know what I am talking about) but she isn't getting any Xover and she leaves her hips open so she is losing all the potential explosion from the core.
