The final 11.6 seconds of the Clevaland Cavaliers-Brooklyn Nets game was one wild ride. Thankfully, the ending was an exciting finish that saw the Cavs walk away with the win after trailing late in the fourth quarter.

The Cavs can thank Isaac Okoro for coming in clutch with a second left in the game as he knocked down a three with just 0.7 seconds left on the clock. Okoro's raw reaction is priceless and that adrenaline appeared to still be running after the game.

When Okoro was asked about hitting the dagger he said while out of breath:

"All I know is, I mean, the ball went out. I see (LeVert) get it. I went to my spot in the corner. (LeVert) trusted me and passed me the ball, believed in me, and I took the shot with confidence and knocked it down."

Okoro was quickly swarmed by his teammates shortly after finishing that phrase and he was drenched with celebratory Gatorade cups full of water.

It's clear that Isaac has been putting in the work and wants to get better at his three-point shooting. All of that work has built him up to this moment which is exactly what the organization hoped he could be when they drafted him fifth overall.
