Henderson's Last Second Layup
On January 19, 1990, in a game between the Chicago Bulls and the New Jersey Nets, the Chicago Bulls' Cedric Henderson made a last-second layup, securing a 112-111 win for his team. This play was notable for its clutch nature and the fact that it occurred in the final seconds of the game.
The play began when the Nets' Derrick Coleman made a layup to take the lead with only seconds left on the clock. However, the Bulls' Scottie Pippen was able to quickly move the ball up the court and find Henderson, who made the game-winning shot as time expired.
"It was a great pass from Scottie. I knew he was going to get me the ball, and I just tried to make a easy play," Henderson said in an interview after the game.
The Bulls went on to win the game 112-111, with Henderson's last-second layup being the decisive factor.
Author's note: This play is a classic example of clutch performance in basketball, showcasing the ability of a player to rise to the occasion and make a game-winning shot under pressure.
