Bitsy,
Not the same, but there was something close in an NBA Championship game.
Can you picture a Michael Jordan highlight against the Pistons. [They showed it a lot over the years.]
MJ drives the middle of lane and goes up with his right...
He is fouled while holding the ball...
Still hanging, MJ switches the ball to his left...
He scores and then goes to the line.
