Tyson Chandler comes up with a last-gasp block to deny Trae Young, giving the Lakers the win over the Hawks.

Tyson Chandler stole a little of LeBron James' limelight on Sunday as he came up with the game-winning play in the LA Lakers' 107-106 victory over the Atlanta Hawks.

James, having just missed two free throws, eventually found the bucket off a second rebound with 15 seconds remaining to put the Lakers one point clear.

That left the Hawks one final possession to snatch the game and the chance fell to rookie Trae Young.

But as he drove to the net with time expiring, his lay-up was brilliantly blocked by Chandler as the buzzer sounded, prompting huge celebrations on and off the court as the Lakers moved above .500 for the first time this season.
