5. Paul Pierce

7 game-winning buzzer-beaters

Pierce was a tremendous three-point shooter, but he made a living out of his masterpiece in the mid-range. It’s not a coincidence that all of his seven game-winning buzzer-beaters were two-pointers as he would always rely on his signature mid-range jumper in the game’s most crucial moments.

Pierce, a 10-time NBA All-Star, played for the Celtics, Nets, Wizards and Clippers before retiring in 2017.

4. LeBron James

7 game-winning buzzer-beaters

Along with Iguodala, LeBron is one of the two active players in this list. Something to take note of is that five of the seven game-winning buzzer-beaters that LeBron has compiled in his career came during the playoffs. “Playoff LeBron” is definitely not a myth as he usually turns it up a notch during the postseason.

There were many times that LeBron would pass up a game-winner opportunity by dishing out the rock to a more-open teammate, a tendency for which the four-time MVP was criticized of. But LeBron also had his share of clutch moments, including this unforgettable buzzer-beating triple in Game 2 of the 2009 NBA Eastern Conference Finals.
