#NBATopShotThis: Huerter beats the buzzer with the touchdown layup

0.6 seconds remaining on the clock?

Kevin Huerter had just enough time to get this acrobatic bucket to go.

With halftime approaching in the Atlanta Hawks' game against the Toronto Raptors, Solomon Hill launched this full-court pass to a streaking Huerter, who beat the defence down the court, caught the ball in mid-air and put it up in the same motion to extend their lead to 12 points at the break.  

Huerter finished with 17 points and four assists on 7-of-14 shooting from the field and 3-of-6 from the 3-point line in their 108-103 win over the Raptors. The victory was their seventh from their past eight games, strengthening their grip on the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference standings, improving to 30-25 on the season, 1.0 game clear of the Boston Celtics.

Huerter currently has five different moments on the Top Shot marketplace, with the top sale of his moments at $2,500 (USD).
