In a thrilling NBA game, Max Strus, nicknamed 'The Microwave', of the Cleveland Cavaliers made a remarkable 59-foot buzzer-beater to secure a 121-119 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. This incredible shot capped off a stunning performance by Strus, who scored 15 points in just 67 seconds in the final 3:42 of the game, going a perfect 5-of-5 from three-point range. His game-winning shot is now the second-longest game-winning buzzer-beater in the three-point era. The Cavaliers were trailing by 10 points with just over four minutes left in the game but managed to outscore the Mavericks 23-11 in the closing minutes. This victory was highlighted by Strus' exceptional shooting, earning him praise and making the game one of the most exciting of the season, despite Luka Doncic's impressive 45-9-14 performance for the Mavericks.
