Rookie guard Trae Young beat the buzzer as time expired in overtime to earn the Atlanta Hawks a dramatic victory over Eastern Conference leaders the Milwaukee Bucks.
Young had 12 points and 16 assists as the he Hawks earned their first win over Milwaukee in three tries this season and broke a six-game losing streak to the Bucks.
The teams ended regulation tied at 122-122 and Young believed he'd made the decisive basket with 6.8 seconds remaining in the extra session.
However, Milwaukee's Sterling Brown, who scored a season-high 27 points, had put the Bucks ahead with 1.1 seconds remaining with a driving basket.
Undeterred, Atlanta attempted to find high-flying forward John Collins close to the Bucks basket with a floated in-bounds pass but it was swatted away by Bucks big man Brook Lopez.
Unfortunately for Milwaukee, Lopez's swipe directed the ball straight to Young who improvised a put-back that bobbled on the Bucks' rim before falling through the hoop as time expired.
