How did Oregon's best shot blocker in program history learn to know when and how to block shots? By playing a video game of course.

"I learned it from guitar hero," said junior forward Jordan Bell. "That's where I got it. I also played volleyball in high school, so that's where I learned it."

Oregon junior forward Jordan Bell says he credits his ability to block shots at the college level to his days growing up playing the video game Guitar Hero.

"You have to hit the keys at the exactly right moment. Shot blocking, you have to wait for the right moment," said Bell. "Seeing that is the same as seeing the defender come and when they are going to go up."

Bell says every player releases a shot at the same time every time they attack the basket or take a jumper. For Bell, he needs to pick up that flow of the shot to allow him to time the block perfectly.

"You can't jump too early or jump too late, or you're going to miss your chance," Bell said.

Bell has blocked a school-record 231 shots in his three years at Oregon, and the star gives all the credit for blocking shots time and time again from time spent jamming out on Guitar Hero.

"Me seeing that is like seeing the notes as they come," Bell said.
