The Knicks awarded a male fan $1,000 in lottery scratch-off tickets Friday for hitting a half-court shot, according to ESPN, which left some surprised — especially after the same shot netted someone $100,000 at a Lakers home game last week.

“Lmaoooo this is the most knicks prize ever,” tweeted comedian Desus Nice, as social media onlookers piled on. “My god”

The Knicks, who lost to the Pelicans on Friday, previously offered a $10,000 prize for hitting half-court shots, which happened at least once last season.
