Hawks' AJ Griffin delivers buzzer-beater with 0.5 seconds left to stun Bulls

The Atlanta Hawks and Chicago Bulls played each other Sunday night and had one of the wildest finishes of the 2022-2023 NBA regular season so far.

The game came down to the wire in overtime. With 0.5 seconds to go in overtime, Bulls guard DeMar DeRozan was fouled from beyond the three-point line and was awarded three free throws. He made all three shots to put the Bulls up, 122-121.

The Hawks called timeout and were able to move the ball up past half-court. As the two teams made substitutions, Hawks forward Jalen Johnson took the ball out and Atlanta set up their side out of bonds play still with 0.5 seconds left on the clock.

Johnson somehow got a lob up high enough for AJ Griffin to jump, catch and shoot the ball in the paint. Griffin had to turn around to catch the ball and, in the air, he shot it and made the basket.

DeRozan led all scorers with 34 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists. He was 10 of 21 shooting and 14 of 15 from the free-throw line. Zach LaVine added 21 points.

Panthers' Terrace Marshall Jr. makes incredible leg catch as Carolina uses lucky breaks to pick up win

The Carolina Panthers needed the ball to bounce their way if they were going to upset the Seattle Seahawks on the road – and it just so happened their hopes came to fruition.

Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. submitted his name in the Catch of the Year category when he somehow managed to corral a pass from Sam Darnold in between his legs and around Seahawks cornerback Tariq Woolen for a first down in the second half. The little bit of luck was evident.

On the next drive, Darnold found wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. off to his right side. He dove forward to make the catch behind the line of scrimmage. He was untouched and managed to salvage a few yards to inch Carolina closer to a touchdown. Raheem Blackshear would run for an 8-yard touchdown on the next play to put Carolina up 27-17 with 6:57 left in the game.

Seattle would punt on the next drive and score on their final drive, making it a one-possession game. The Seahawks failed to recover the onside kick and Carolina closed out the 30-24 victory.

Darnold was 14 of 24 with 120 passing yards and a touchdown pass to Shi Smith. Shenault led the Panthers with four catches for 31 yards. Chuba Hubbard led the team with 14 carries for 74 yards, and he had three catches for 25 yards.

Carolina’s defense sacked Geno Smith three times and picked him off twice. Jaycee Horn and C.J. Henderson had an interception each.

Smith finished 21 of 36 with 264 passing yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. Marquise Goodwin had five catches for 95 yards and a touchdown. DK Metcalf had five catches for 71 yards and a touchdown. Tyler Lockett added five catches for 60 yards and a touchdown.

But Seattle failed to pick up a critical victory in their fight to win the NFC West. They dropped to 7-6 on the year.

Carolina entered the game only two games behind the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the lead in the NFC South. Their win and the Bucs’ loss inched them closer to the top.
