PHOENIX — It's a dream come true for most basketball players to hit a buzzer-beating shot during a game.

For Liberty High School student Tonatiuh Ramirez, his buzzer beater led another dream of his to come true.

In early November, Tonatiuh Ramirez made a game-winning half-court buzzer-beater at his high school basketball game. "T" is on an inclusive basketball team providing opportunities for students with disabilities to pursue their passions. T's favorite player? Stephen Curry. Stephen saw T's story and invited him to tonight's game in Phoenix 💙
