The Los Angeles Lakers may have lost last night, but for one fan it was the best day of his life.
With $75,000 on the line, lucky fan Jamie Murray rubbed his hands, took a deep breath and grabbed a basketball. Lakers fan Jamie Murray after sinking a half-court shot for $75,000.Given an opportunity of a lifetime, Murray reminisced about his Laker fandom. Since his first day on Earth, his mother Sandra raised him to cheer for L.A.'s finest, dressing him up in a purple and gold jersey for his newborn photo. His love for basketball grew throughout the years.
"I went to a little camp at Apollo Park, not too far from my house," he said."I would just play in the games, play pick up when I got older and now I play at the gym." From balling at Apollo Park to standing on the same court that his favorite team ran up and down, night in and night out, the 24-year-old Amazon delivery driver had his opportunity to capture a magical moment — all during his first Laker game in 18 years.
"We were scanning the tickets and a lady approaches us, and she's like 'You guys want to enter for a chance to win some money,'" recalled Murray."I was like 'Is there a catch?'""I kind of wanted to load it up from about the right side, and let it off in the middle," he said."You know, aim it correctly. That was my technique."
With his technique in mind, Murray lofted up the shot. It clearly banked off the backboard and through the basket.
