American basketball player Kevin Durant scored a basket with a near-impossible, off-balance shot while falling out of bounds for the three-pointer and making the subsequent foul shot for a four-point play.
The Oklahoma City Thunder forward scored the improbable basket in the fourth quarter of the team's playoff game against the Memphis Grizzlies.
According to ABC News, basketball fans could not stop re-watching and posting tweets about Durant's basket, with one fan posting that the basketball player is not 'human' on Twitter.
Another tweet said that Durant deserves the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of the year award for that shot alone.
Thunder were trailing 98-93 when Durant converted the free throw for a three-point basket, taking his team just a point behind the Grizzllies.
Thunder later went on to tie the game, but the Grizzlies eventually won 111-105 in overtime, the report added.
