In one of the most awe-inspiring moments of the 2012-13 NBA season, Gerald Henderson redefined the term "making something out of nothing."
The Charlotte Bobcats were trailing the Minnesota Timberwolves by a score of 101-99 when they crossed midcourt with 26 seconds remaining. Henderson proceeded to drive the lane, only for the ball to be knocked loose.
Bismack Biyombo proceeded to dive and save the ball from going out of bounds, thus throwing it back in to Kemba Walker.
The frenzy didn't end there, as Walker had the ball poked away and was forced to chase it back across midcourt. Kemba then found Henderson, who worked pure and utter basketball magic.
Henderson crossed up Ricky Rubio, pump faked Andrei Kirilenko and got an off-balance shot off from well beyond the three-point line. Henderson not only beat the shot clock, but he also took down the Timberwolves.
With a Kemba Walker block on the final possession, it was a 102-101 Bobcats win:
