The Chicago Bulls trailed the Los Angeles Lakers 115–110 with just 12.6 seconds remaining in Thursday night's game at the United Center. Any comeback in that situation would be incredible. The way the Bulls pulled it off was absolutely miraculous.

Center Nikola Vucevic found forward Patrick Williams open in the corner for a three to cut L.A.'s lead to two points. On the ensuing inbounds play, guard Josh Giddey stole a bounce pass from LeBron James, quickly kicking the ball out to Coby White who drained a three to give Chicago a 116–115 lead, scoring six points in less than six seconds of game time.

The 6.1 seconds left on the clock was too much time, however.

The Lakers advanced the ball on a timeout and Luka Doncic inbounded the ball to Austin Reaves, who quickly slashed to the basket for a go-ahead layup.

Chicago wasn't done. Without a timeout available, Giddey, who made the game-saving defensive play just seconds earlier, passed it in to Williams, who gave it right back to him. The Lakers gave him some daylight from the half-court logo, and he drilled a game-winning buzzer beater.

If there's a more electric finish in all of basketball this year, we'd love to see it.
