Friday, January 5, 2018
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- A new tradition at the Houston Rockets games this season fell at the feet of Astros' star Carlos Correa last night.

The Rockets' "first shot" gives a celebrity one chance to make a free throw before the game begins and if they do, Rockets' owner Tilman Fertitta donates $5,000 to charity.

Correa stepped up to the line and swished it.

He told reporters he felt no pressure because he just won the world series and that's enough pressure.
