The Cleveland Cavaliers went into Toronto and stole two games from the Raptors in Games 1 and 2 and were looking to take a commanding 3-0 lead in Game 3 at home in Quicken Loans Arena. The Raptors looked sharper in Game 3, however. While DeMar DeRozan was brutally struggling, Kyle Lowry kept Toronto close throughout the game.

Late in the contest, rookie OG Anunoby hit a clutch three-point basket to tie the game at 103, forcing Cleveland to call a timeout to draw up one final play.

The Cavaliers elected to take the ball out in the backcourt, allowing for LeBron James to have more space and freedom to operate. James ran the ball down to towards the sideline and nailed a one-footed jump shot right in front of Toronto's bench at the buzzer to beat the Raptors 105-103.

James' teammates went crazy, showing the three-time championship with a lot of praise. Once again, Toronto's heart was crushed by James, who has been having an incredible series. After witnessing another amazing LeBron James buzzer beater, NBA players around the league tweeted their reactions.
