1. John Wall’s game-winning shot against the Chicago Bulls
The Washington Wizards hosted the Chicago Bulls without the service of their star playersDwyane WadeandJimmy Butler, but that didn’t seem to hinder the Bulls play. The Wizards trailed the Bulls the entire third quarter and for the majority of the fourth.
The game took a dramatic shift for the Wizards after Bulls’Denzel Valentinehit a 27-foot step back three point shot then proceeded to perform a celebratory dance as the Wizards called timeout with 7:37 remaining.
Wall took note of Valentine’s actions, and according toCSN’s Chris Miller, Wall told the Bulls rookie, “That’s how you feel? You woke a monster.”
This is Valentine's feel good moment that ticked off Wall in 4th. Taj Gibson told him, Im told, to cut it out. Evident here too#WizBullspic.twitter.com/1Ob63uRLWQ

Following the timeout, the Wizards rushed back, led by a motivated Wall, who tied the game at 99 with 47 seconds left. Then, with the game still knotted at 99, Wall hits the game-winning shot with five seconds remaining to lift the Wizards past the Bulls.
Surprisingly, Wall’s game-winner against the Bulls was his first game-winning shot under five seconds in his career.
