Miraculous Shot at the Buzzer

It was a close game for the Milwaukee Bucks as they hosted the Miami Heat. There was 12 seconds left in the game when Bucks player Khris Middleton takes a straight on three pointer and missed. His teammate was fortunate enough to tangle up a rebound with a Miami Heat player to force a jump ball right in front of the Bucks hoop. Jerryd Bayless from the Milwaukee Bucks won tip ball and managed to get the ball back and was able to drive but unfortunately him missed the layup, but his teammate Zaza Pachulia was able to get the rebound and kick it back out to Khris Middleton. Middleton had 2 seconds to get the shot up so he did a catch and shoot. With no time left on the clock Middleton hit a miraculous shot at the buzzer to bring the Bucks to a record of 35-36. The Bucks went on an 18 to 3 run in the 4th quarter to insure them a chance for that buzzer beater win. Bucks have met the Heat 4 times this season and have been able to bring out the broom an sweep the series. The state line for the Milwaukee Bucks was Ersan Ilyasova led the way with 19 points. Adding to the Bucks score was Giannis Antetokounmpo had 16 points. An amazing thing to recognize is that this is just their 4th win in 18 games since trading away starting point guard Brandon Knight.

Upcoming game for the Milwaukee Bucks is the Indiana Pacers.

Upcoming game for the Miami Heat is the Boston Celtics.

  4. Yeah, ditto what the girls said. You had a lot of basketball sports lingo here Ty which shows you're a totally authentic sports writer. You play the game and know it well as both a player and a fan. I'm glad you chose a topic you're so knowledgeable in.

    Favorite line was when you said they were bringing out the broom - cool expression!

  8. Is it possible to take "basketball lingo" as a foreign language in school? These are the questions that must be answered...
