With less than two minutes remaining in the extra period, Serge Ibaka took it upon himself to preserve his Oklahoma City Thunder's six-point lead.
After corralling a long rebound, Utah Jazz small forward Gordon Hayward swiftly made his way down the court for a dunk that would have cut his team's deficit to four.
If it wasn't for Ibaka's defensive heroics, the Thunder may have seen their four-game winning streak put in jeopardy.
This rejection was the 26-year-old's fifth of six total blocks in the overtime thriller.
Cue Ibaka's celebratory "snake charmer dance".
