Watch: Thunder fan hits halfcourt shot, wins $20K

It's not just the players who are lighting up from deep range in Oklahoma City this season.

During a timeout in Thursday's game against the Mavericks, a lucky fan got an attempt at a halfcourt shot for a chance to win $20K. With the eyes of the entire arena on him, the fan made the most of his opportunity. Take a look at how it happened.

The Thunder have done this at every home game this season, and this was the first person to make the shot and win the money. 

The bounce, the crowd reaction and even the mascot reaction all made for an excellent moment.
