Thunder vs. Bulls last night.

MARQUEE NBA matchup.

This one came down to a pair of free throws from Steven Adams, a veteran with a 55% career mark from the charity stripe. Adams stepped up with the game tied at 106, then proceeded to bank in the first shot, miss the second, and then grab the rebound to help ice the game.

He said this afterwards on live TV:

Adams:

“I absolutely shit my pants. It’s pretty tough. I didn’t realize how much pressure it is, eh?”

Thunder improve to 12-14 with the win. Bulls fall to 10-19 and continue to stink.
