extracting JSON data from website--how to use string to JSON node?

Hello, this is my first question in the forum–I’m fairly new to Knime.

I’m trying to grab some JSON data from a website, so far I’ve been able to extract the following string (shortened in the middle) using a Regex Extractor node:

shotsData = JSON.parse(‘\x7B\x22h\x22\x3A\x5B\x7B\x22id\x22\x3A\x22506859\x22,\x22minute\x22\x3A\x2217\x22,\x22result\x22\x3A\x22BlockedShot\x22,\x22X\x22\x3A\x220.779000015258789

…

\x2D03\x2020\x3A00\x3A00\x22,\x22player_assisted\x22\x3Anull,\x22lastAction\x22\x3A\x22Rebound\x22\x7D\x5D\x7D’),

I cannot figure out where to start and end this string to make it readable in a String to JSON node, nothing I’ve tried so far has worked.

TIA for any suggestions.
