As you can imagine, the team led by Utah Jazz owner celebrated like they won the match. However, Giannis Antetokounmpo ran to the court and gestured that the shot shouldn’t count. He believed that the ball was still in The Miz’s hands when the buzzer went off.

The shot went to replay, and the Greek Freak was proven right. Replays showed that the ball was still in the A-lister’s palms when the clock went to zero, much to the dismay of Team Ryan Smith and the audience in attendance.

Regardless, that match was more fun than it had any right to be. And everyone ended up having a great time, so there really isn’t any loser here. Well except Team Ryan Smith, but it doesn’t seem like they’ll be too bothered for too long about it.
