In a nail-biting Chinese Basketball League (CBL) showdown, the Shanxi Loongs shattered the Shandong Kylins' 11-game home winning streak with a jaw-dropping last-second shot! 🌟 The Loongs edged the Kylins 120-119 in Jinan, leaving fans on the edge of their seats until the final buzzer.
Shandong’s Jamar Gulley (🇺🇸) lit up the first quarter with 9 straight points, but Shanxi clawed back from a 10-point deficit thanks to Brandon Goodwin’s relentless drives and Zhang Ning’s slick four-point play. 🎯 The game became a 3-point shootout in the third quarter, with Shanxi’s Xing Zhiqiang joining the frenzy to grab an 8-point lead.
With 20 seconds left, Shandong led 119-118—until *this* happened: Jia Mingru faked out defender Marquese Chriss and drained a CLUTCH corner jumper with 0.2 seconds left! 😱 The crowd went silent as Shanxi’s bench erupted. 🎉
Meanwhile, Beikong Royal Fighters narrowly avoided disaster against Jiangsu Dragons, escaping with a 96-95 win despite Jared Sullinger’s free-throw misses. Liao Sanning dropped 26 points off the bench to keep Beikong’s playoff hopes alive. 💪
