Michael Jordan had plenty of highlight plays during his career, but this might go down as one of the biggest.

16 years ago today, Jordan was playing in Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals against the Utah Jazz. With the clock running out, Jordan crossed over Bryon Russell and hit the game-wining shot with 5.2 seconds left to give the Chicago Bulls the 87-86 win.

Jordan finished the game with 45 points, and the win helped him secure his sixth and final NBA title.
