Watch Team USA Basketball Hit An Absolutely Ridiculous Game Winner At The Buzzer

There’s one team we can all finally rally around and enjoy watching. That’s Team USA. The red, white and blue, baby. And what a shot this was by Reggie Hearn. This happened last night against Argentina in a qualifying game for the World Cup.

This is a pretty ridiculous shot by Hearn. You have just a second to get it off. Remember you need over .3 for a catch and shoot so it’s not a whole lot of time. He has a guy literally in his chest and challenging the shot. He’s fading away from the hoop and out of bounds. Just drills it.

There was actually a fear that the US wouldn’t make the FIBA World Cup, which would mean they’d have to go through a whole different qualifying tournament just to make the Olympics. It’d be shocking in the basketball world despite Team USA only playing with G League players.

However, Van Gundy did an incredible coaching job before handing the title over to Gregg Popovich for the World Cup. Team USA qualified for the World Cup after beating Uruguay 78-70 back in December and going 10-2 during qualifying.

World Cup is later this year and Olympics next year. Time to dominate the world.
