Josh Giddey is having one of the greatest weeks in NBA history.

On Saturday, he fell two steals short of a quadruple-double, posting 15 points, 17 assists, 10 rebounds and eight steals in a 146-115 drubbing of the Lakers. Two days later, he followed it up with a 26 point performance against Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets.

But yesterday may top all of that.

After Austin Reaves may a tough layup to give the Lakers a one-point lead with seconds remaining, Giddey raced down the court. He pulled up from just around the half-court line, held his follow-through and watched his prayer hit nothing but net.

Ballgame.

On top of his game-winner, Giddey posted another triple-double, finishing with 25 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists in the comeback victory.

Coby White led the Bulls with 26 points and Kevin Huerter added 21 points.

The King’s double-digit scoring streak continued, as LeBron finished with 17 points and 12 assists, while Luka Doncic posted 25 points and 10 boards. Reaves led the Lakers with a 30-point night.

The Lakers held a 10-point lead with six minutes to play in the fourth quarter, but squandered the opportunity to close it out. Triples by Patrick Williams, Huerter and Nikola Vucevic helped Chicago stay within striking distance until the very end.

With 10 seconds left, Williams made a triple to cut the lead to two. The Bulls tightened up their defense on the inbound, and Giddey stole LeBron’s inbound pass, finding White for a go-ahead three.

After Reaves’ go-ahead layup, Giddey sealed the comeback victory, hitting the shot over the King’s outstretched arm.

The Bulls have found incredible form, posting an 8-2 record in their last 10 games and currently sit in ninth place in the Eastern Conference.

The Lakers have fallen down to fourth place and are tied with the Grizzlies in the Western Conference.
