The Phoenix Suns have had this promotion at home games for several years. A fan gets to choose a shot from one of three spots on the floor to win either $777 for making a free throw, $7,777 for making a three-pointer, or $77,777 for draining a halfcourt shot. The fan decided to go all in by attempting the halfcourt shot and it paid off big time!
Tim Boven heaved the halfcourt shot right into the basket causing a standing ovation from the crowd and being completely mobbed by the Suns players. Surprisingly the hip check from Gerald Green didn’t knock him on his a**.
