Independence of conditional hitting distribution and hitting time

Suppose given a d-dimensional Brownian motion $B_t$ starting from the origin and a centered ball with radius 1. Define T as the first hitting time of the sphere (boundary of the ball). How can one prove that T and $B_T$ are independent?
