Videos of Jaden James, Special Olympics Arkansas basketball player, have gone viral.

15-year-old Jaden James, Special Olympics Oklahoma, sunk this 3-point bucket during a basketball tournament in Fort Smith. If you think it was just a fluke, think again.

After the video went viral (getting over a million views on ESPN’s Sports Center alone), the Harlem Globetrotters invited him to suit up as a special guest at their Tulsa, OK game. When Jaden stepped on the court to show his stuff, he hit this 3-point shot on his first try to the roaring delight of the crowd.

Jaden’s coach says the team and entire school are excitedly celebrating Jaden’s successes.

You can watch an interview with Jaden and his mom here.
