Samsung, which finished at the bottom of the standings for the past five consecutive seasons in professional basketball, is creating a buzz early in the season.

Powered by Kanter's dramatic, game-winning three-pointer with 4.6 seconds remaining, the team has achieved three consecutive opening-game wins for the first time in an astonishing 23 years.

With the game tied, Samsung found itself on the brink of defeat after allowing a layup to Sono's Lee Jae-do with 21 seconds left on the clock.

During the final timeout, Samsung head coach Kim Sang-sik pulled aside Kanter—who had missed all six of his previous three-point attempts—and gave him specific instructions.

Jamsil Student Gymnasium erupted in celebration as Kanter's three-pointer from the right 45-degree angle went through the net with 4.6 seconds remaining.

With a thrilling one-point comeback victory marking their first 3-0 start in 23 years, the Samsung players hugged Kanter and reveled in the joy of the win.
