This shot led to a buzzer beater that tied the score at 117-117, and Oklahoma City won 130-123 after overtime.
Chase Center, home of the National Basketball Association (NBA) Golden State, on the 19th. With 3 seconds left in the 4th quarter, Andrew Wiggins (Golden State) hit a 3-pointer on the opposing Oklahoma City rim to make it 117-114. Home fans, confident of escaping their 5-game losing streak, were enthusiastic. But three seconds later, Golden State fans were left holding their heads. This is because the team was hit with a 3-pointer at the end of the 4th quarter at the buzzer and was sent into overtime.
The main character of the buzzer beater that tied the score at 117-117 was Oklahoma City's 'big man' Chet Holgrun (21). Holmgrun, who received a pass with 1.6 seconds left at the end of the fourth quarter, scored a turnaround shot as the opposing defense caught up. The ball left Homerun's hand with 0.7 seconds left and split the rim. When Homegrun's 3-point shot passed the rim, it was after the final buzzer sounded. On this day, Oklahoma City won 130-123 in overtime and won four games in a row. Oklahoma City guard Shay Gilgeous-Alexander said, “The homerun gave our team five more minutes. “Five minutes were enough to win,” he said. Gilgeous Alexander, who scored 40 points that day, drove in 10 points in overtime alone.
Homegrun led the team to victory with 36 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists on this day. He also recorded two blocked shots. Homegrun is a ‘2nd year rookie’. He was selected 2nd overall in the NBA draft in June of last year and wore an Oklahoma City uniform. However, last season, he suffered an ankle injury before the start of the season and was unable to play a single game. This is why he is being mentioned as a candidate for Rookie of the Year this season, even though it is his second year as a professional. Yahoo Sports in the U.S. covered the results of the game that day and said, “Homegrun scored more than 30 points in a game for the first time, once again showing that Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio) is not the only player in the Rookie of the Year race. “As of now, either of the two players deserves to be named Rookie of the Year.”
Holmgrun, who has played 13 games this season, is averaging 17.1 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 2.8 assists. His 2.2 individual blocked shots are 5th in the entire league. Homegrun is evaluated as a complete rookie with both offensive and defensive abilities. He himself said, “I can do anything well, whether it’s offense or defense. He is also good at blocking shots. “I am a player who knows how to create scoring opportunities for the team even when I don’t have the ball,” he said, showing confidence. Holmgrun, the best player (MVP) of the 2021 International Basketball Federation (FIBA) Under-19 World Cup, was a promising national star, receiving offers of 'scholarship admission' from more than 30 universities ahead of high school graduation.
In particular, Homegrun boasts a high shooting success rate even though he is a 216cm center. This season, Homegrun is recording a success rate of 54.6% on field goals, 43.8% on 3-point shots, and 90.4% on free throws. He is listed in the '180 Club' (50% field goal shooting, 40% 3-point shooting, and over 90% free throw success rate), which is a symbol of 'highly efficient shooter'. Stephen Curry (Golden State), the NBA's leading shooter, is recording a success rate of 47.9% on field goals, 44.7% on 3-point shots, and 93.3% on free throws this season. 스포츠토토맨
