A West Orange man sank a halfcourt shot at a New York Knicks game, winning $10,000.

A West Orange man missed a layup, free throw and a three-point shot, but drained a halfcourt shot when it counted most.

Shawn Kelly of West Orange sank a halfcourt shot to win $10,000 Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden.

Despite the New York Knicks falling to the Detroit Pistons 112-90, capping off a 17-65 season, the worst in franchise history, Kelly gave Madison Square Garden one last positive moment this year.
