One might call it a buzzer beater — a concept Jordan is all too familiar with.

Jordan scooped up Reddick's four-year-old son, Beau, to savor the win in a clip that has since gone viral.

"He did a great job," Jordan told Beau. "You gonna celebrate?"

"Yeah!" Beau replied.

Jordan has been a co-owner of team 23XI alongside Denny Hamlin for four years.
