It was hard to tell Williams had just led his fifth game-winning drive of the season, tying the Denver Broncos' Bo Nix for the most in the NFL. Williams likely was more focused on what the Bears could have done better. The drive, such as it was, featured three runs by D'Andre Swift that covered just nine yards, but it achieved its goal of eating up the clock. Santos' kick as time expired was set up by Devin Duvernay's 56-yard kickoff return.

It wasn't exactly the shot that Giannis Antetokounmpo wanted, but, then, all he really wanted was the last shot. Everyone knew this, Antetokounmpo most of all: when the game clock started to wind down, he would have the ball. And so, with fifteen seconds left in Monday night's game between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Indiana Pacers, and the score tied, he backed down a Pacers defender, then spun into a fadeaway as the buzzer sounded.

Francisco Alvarez's ability to work an at-bat was a good sign, allowing him to make good swing decisions that initiated the late-game rally.
