Josh Giddey hit a brilliant half-court buzzer-beater to help the Chicago Bulls complete an exceptional 119-117 comeback against the Los Angeles Lakers. <\/b><\/p>\n
The Bulls were trailing by five points with less than 13 seconds remaining at the United Center on Thursday, but they hit three three-pointers in the last 10 seconds of the match. <\/p>\n
With time expiring, Giddey let fly from within his own half and walked off with remarkable calm as his shot found the hoop.<\/p>\n
With 25 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists, Giddey hit his fifth triple-double of the season – the only Bulls player with more in one campaign is the 15 Michael Jordan managed in 1988-89.<\/p>\n
“Special moment to do it with these guys, this team,” Giddey said.<\/p>\n
LeBron James, who was guilty of giving away possession when his side were 115-113 up with 9.8 seconds left, said the Lakers should have seen the game out.<\/p>\n
“We put ourselves in position to win, gave up a lot of threes in the fourth quarter, still put ourselves in position to win,” James said. <\/p>\n
“Horrible turnover by myself, miscommunication the play before that. AR (Austin Reaves) tried to save us. Tip your hats.”<\/p>\n
Lakers coach JJ Redick said there was a mood of “devastation” in the dressing room afterwards, adding “it’s a hell of a way to lose a basketball game”. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
