Basketball: Serbia beat Australia in overtime
What. A. Game.
In the end, it’s one of the best basketball players on earth who makes the difference.
In a sequence of about two minutes, Nikola Jokic produces a tough hookshot score, a key steal on Mills as he looked set to score, and a ridiculous fadeaway shot to effectively seal the game for the world silver medallists.
Australia has a chance to tie things yet again with a few seconds remaining, but a bad inboud pass from Josh Giddey is stolen and Serbia escape with the win, 95-90.
Serbia fans serenade their heroes as one, with more MVP chants for Jokic – well deserved.
