If one were to create a scale of difficulty on game-winning, buzzer-beater 3-pointers, what you’re about to see below would be almost undoubtedly be near the top. Croatian basketball star Zoran Planinic, who suited up for the New Jersey Nets back in the mid-2000s, hit almost a full-court shot with his team, Anadolu Efes Istanbul, trailing by two Friday afternoon. The heave came after a missed free throw that would have put EA7 Emporio Armani Milan up three with three seconds to play.
The announcer’s call clearly doesn’t do the play justice.
It’s hard to know if the free throw was missed on purpose – if so, this is tragic. It’s also hard to know why the referees didn’t call lane violations on any of the players under the basket. Regardless, it’s one of the most impressive game-winners we’ve seen in quite some time.
