The NBA Summer League championship game came down to the Chicago Bulls and the Minnesota Timberwolves, and it was an absolute classic. The game featured back and forth exchanges all game, a close fourth quarter, clutch shots, buzzer beaters, and overtime.

The final few minutes of the fourth quarter and overtime were easily more intense than half of the NBA playoff games. First, Tyus Jones his a deep three pointer at the shot-clock buzzer to give the Wolves a three-point lead. That was followed up by a clutch catch-and-shoot three by rookie Denzel Valentine with just 0.2 left in the game.

In overtime, Valentine decided to iso-up his defender and used a stepback, turnaround jumper at the buzzer to bring the Summer League title home to Chicago.
