PJ Tucker has made a ton of threes throughout his 10-year NBA career. The Milwaukee Bucks forward has 105 playoff triples to his name through 63 postseason contests, but probably none as fortuitous as this last one.

With just Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young on him, Giannis Antetokounmpo called for the alley-oop lob as he was streaking to the basket on a transition play. PJ Tucker tried to throw it up to the Bucks star, but accidentally put the ball in the basket.

Bucks fans will definitely take it. Milwaukee at that point was scratching and clawing to keep pace with the Hawks in the third quarter. They were able to stay within striking distance long enough to turn the tide in the fourth quarter on the backs of Khris Middleton and Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Middleton was an absolute flamethrower in the fourth quarter for the Bucks. The 2-time All-Star erupted for 38 points, including 20 in the final frame, outscoring the entire Hawks team in the process.

While you can never predict how everything truly shakes out, perhaps things would have turned out different had PJ Tucker not hit that crazy lob three-pointer. The Bucks go up two games to one heading into Game 4.
