Bulls star Josh Giddey scores insane half-court buzzer beater to sink LeBron James and the Lakers
The Chicago Bulls secured an astonishing victory over the Los Angeles Lakers after Josh Giddey scored a buzzer beater from the opposite half of the court.
LeBron James scored a last-second game winner win for the Lakers against the Pacers on Wednesday night.
But 24 hours later, Los Angeles was on the wrong end of an incredible ending in the NBA. With 12 seconds to go against the Bulls, the Lakers led 115-110.
Patrick Williams reduced the deficit with a three-pointer and then James immediately gifted Chicago possession with a terrible turnover.
Giddey made the steal and then Coby White scored another three-pointer to give Chicago the lead.
That gave the Lakers 6.1 seconds to turn the game around once more. Austin Reaves drove at the basket and scored a lay-up to put Los Angeles 117-116 ahead.
