Chicago Bulls' Josh Giddey hits 47-foot buzzer-beater to stun Los Angeles Lakers

On March 27, 2025, the Chicago Bulls defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 119-117 at the United Center in Chicago after Josh Giddey made a half-court shot at the buzzer.
The Lakers, with a record of 44-29 and in fourth place in the Western Conference, had just clinched a road victory over the Indiana Pacers just over 24 hours prior to the game against the Bulls.
Despite the Lakers leading by as many as 18 points in the fourth quarter, the Bulls mounted a comeback, with Giddey achieving a triple-double of 25 points, 14 rebounds, and 11 assists, and Coby White adding 26 points.
After Austin Reaves, who led Los Angeles with 30 points, made a layup with 3.3 seconds remaining to give the Lakers a 117-116 lead, Giddey made a 46-foot shot at the buzzer, leading JJ Redick to say, "It's a hell of a way to lose a basketball game."
The Bulls' victory, their fourth consecutive win, was fueled by 11 three-pointers in the fourth quarter alone, contributing to the Lakers' blown lead and their struggle to close out games, impacting their position in the congested Western Conference race.
