‘It was cool’: OG Anunoby, Raptors react to Game 3 buzzer-beater over Celtics

The defending champs were a half-second away from facing a deficit that no team in NBA history has overcome.

Instead, they’re celebrating and have life again after OG Anunoby hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to give the Raptors a 104-103 win in Game 3 over the Celtics.

Anunoby told reporters after the game that he was confident his shot was going in.
