Cal took it to UCLA for 38 minutes and 17 seconds Saturday. The Bruins escaped with a shot worthy of highlight reels for years to come, according to an Associated Press report.

Josh Shipp hit a rainbow jumper over the backboard with 1.5 seconds remaining to help rally UCLA from an 11-point deficit to an 81-80 victory.

Cal’s Ryan Anderson was stripped of the ball in the left corner by Russell Westbrook, and the Bruins eventually got it to Shipp, who was falling out of bounds when he put up a one-handed floater along the right baseline.

“It was definitely a desperation shot. I’ve never seen anything like that. It’s one of those movie shots. It was like a dream.” Shipp said.

Whether the shot was legal sparked debate.
