LOS ANGELES (AFP) — Damian Lillard drilled a buzzer-beating three-pointer to lift the Milwaukee Bucks to a stunning 143-142 National Basketball Association overtime victory over the Sacramento Kings on Sunday.

The Kings led by as many as six in the extra session, but Brook Lopez's three-pointer with 11.5 seconds left pulled Milwaukee within one, and after Sacramento's De'Aaron Fox missed one of two free throws Lillard unleashed the game winner from the top of the arc.

"I shot my best shot on the last shot of the game," said Lillard, who connected on just nine of his 23 attempts from the floor on the way to 29 points.

Giannis Antetokounmpo added a triple-double of 27 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for the Bucks.

Domantas Sabonis notched a
triple-double of 21 points 15 assists and 13 rebounds and Fox scored a game-high 32 points for Sacramento, whose coach Mike Brown was ejected early in the fourth quarter after confronting an official over a non-call when he thought Fox had been fouled.

Brown was still yelling as Kings guard Malik Monk wrapped his arms around him and shepherded him from the court with Sacramento trailing, 105-95.

Sacramento responded and Fox tied it up at 128-128 with a driving layup with one second left in regulation. The Kings were up by four with 33.9 seconds left in overtime.

"The team kept fighting," Lillard said.

"I thought the biggest shot of the night was Brook's three in the corner just to open up that opportunity."

"Once I saw that open space I was like, this is the space that I live in."

In Denver, Nikola Jokic was just one of three Nuggets players to score 25 points as the reigning NBA champions beat the Indiana Pacers, 117-109.

Jokic added 12 rebounds and nine assists, Michael Porter Jr. and Jamal Murray scored 25 points apiece and Aaron Gordon added 20 points and 10 rebounds for the Nuggets.

They shot a season-high 64.8 percent from the field and held the NBA's
top-scoring offense to its fifth-fewest points this season.

Nuggets coach Michael Malone was disappointed by his team's season-worst 21 turnovers, but full of praise for Porter, who drilled seven three-pointers in what Malone called "a complete basketball game."

"It was easy looks," Porter said.

"My teammates were finding me so I didn't have to work too hard for my shots."
