“Mom doesn’t believe you!”
As David Moya walked off the Staples Center floor with a giant check in both hands, his fifth grader son, Christian, hollered his wife’s disbelief from the stands.
Moya himself admitted it was “a little unbelievable,” but he had indeed just won $95,000 by connecting on a halfcourt heave in the MGM Grand Big Shot Jackpot.
A competitive power lifter from Oakdale, Calif., Moya originally wanted his son to take the shot in between the third and fourth quarters, but luckily for both, Dad got to show Christian — and the other 18,995 in attendance — how to get it done.
