With 0.2 seconds left on the shot clock, Trevor Booker produced a moment of pure magic to nail a two-pointer

The Utah Jazz forward was the paragon of coolness as he tapped in a bounce pass with his back to the net to beat the buzzer. The ball barely seemed to graze his fingertips, but Booker touched it with the perfect amount of finesse to bag one of the oddest scores of the season. He must have been counting his blessings that the hopeful shot actually came off. Not even the franchise's official Twitter account could believe it found the bucket. https://twitter.com/utahjazz/status/553733628640116736 In a perfect world, the volleyball-esque shot would have been the game-winning score. However, despite Booker's brilliance, the Jazz lost out to the Oklahoma City Thunder 99-94. Hat-tip to The Big Lead
