The shot was worth $75,000.
The reaction was priceless.
Basketball fan Michael Drysch nailed a one-handed hook shot following the third quarter of Friday’s Heat-Pistons game.
Drysch raised his fists, smiling, triumphant. Then he braced for a bear hug from Heat superstar LeBron James, with James tackling the man in jubilation — Drysch was selected to take the shot through James’s foundation.
As the hug continued, Drysch patted the basketball icon on the back, both of the men beaming.
“Nice way to meet somebody,” Drysch, a computer technician from McHenry, Ill., said later. “I can’t believe it.”
