Last night, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Dallas Mavericks participated in one of the most hard-fought regular season games of the 2023-2024 regular season.
This was a battle between two of the league’s best teams, a game that ended up going down to the wire.
The Mavericks scored with two seconds left in the fourth quarter, and it looked like they were going to take home the victory.
However, Max Strus ended up hitting a game-winner from way downtown, a shot that has quite literally been seen and heard throughout the world.

After seeing this stunning game-winner, NBA fans across the world reacted, including Travis Kelce.
Kelce responded to a tweet from Patrick Mahomes, indicating that his hometown Cavaliers “Got the juice right now.”

After seeing that game-winner, it might be hard to argue with Kelce.
The Cavaliers now have the second-best record in the Eastern Conference, a sign of how well they have played throughout the year.
While they are in the No. 2 spot, the Cavaliers have a long way to go to catch the Boston Celtics, who are currently 7.5 games ahead of them.
For as good as the Cavaliers have been this year, and for how impressive of a roster they have built, the Celtics have reigned supreme throughout the season.
Will the Cavaliers, or any other team in the East, for that matter, be able to take them down in a seven-game series?
That is the question that many fans and analysts are trying to answer.
For now, Cavaliers fans can be excited about Strus’ shot, relishing in this great moment after the All-Star break.
