Barajas only needed to hit a shot from the deep, while Lillard had the task of reaching three logo triples. With the descending clock, Barajas threw one when the timbre and the multicolored ball sounded splashed through the hoop.
The ball broke from the board before entering, already measured the expression, the bank was open. And filled Barajas’s own bank account in the process.

“I was going down to the cable, we had 30 seconds and my dad always tells me: ‘Use the board,” Barajas explained. “That is what I had to do to enter.”
The funny thing is that Barajas had no idea that he was going to the Chase center to see the NBA stars game of 2025 on Sunday night, since I expected to go, but I didn’t have it on the calendar.
Michael Barajas, his father, found the prices of the tickets he was looking for and took the opportunity to surprise his son. If that was a surprise for Jaren, imagine how he was asked to participate in the contest.

“Yesterday I was surprised with these tickets, so I didn’t even know I was going to the game, so having this experience is so surreal. I am very grateful,” he said.
Michael added: “I wanted I am glad to have done it.
The bank’s shot is something that Jaren will never forget, especially when he celebrated with Shaquille O’Neal and Kenny Smith on the court immediately after he entered. Golden State Warriors star, Steph Curry, was smiling from ear to ear while the multitude roaring.
