Jayson Tatum's Game-Winner in Celtics vs Pelicans Goes Viral

Riding a four-game losing streak, the New Orleans Pelicans went into a huge matchup against the Boston Celtics with minimal confidence. Playing without stars Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram was certainly a setback for them, but the Pelicans managed to take the defending champions to the final buzzer.

After Pelicans veteran guard CJ McCollum drained a clutch floater with just 24 seconds remaining to tie it, Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum took matters into his own hands, drilling the game-winner with McCollum in his face.

The off-the-dribble contested midrange shot to win the game is automatically going into Tatum's career highlight tape, and the NBA world has already taken their reactions to social media.
