With 1.2 seconds remaining, Barrett knocked down a three-pointer after it bounced high off of the rim. This capped off an impressive night for the former No. 3 overall pick, as he finished with 24 points, nine rebounds, three assists and one steal.

Following the game, Barrett was asked by reporters, "How many times did you dream about doing something like that?"

"I still dream about it," said Barrett. "Glory be to God, I didn't make nothing the whole fourth quarter, the whole overtime."

What makes the shot even more special is that Barrett's signature moment happened in his hometown, having grown up in Toronto, Canada.
