The New York Knicks beat the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday night, 130-125. The Pelicans had the ball down three in the final seconds, but Jordan Poole was unable to tie the game or even hit the rim on his final shot. Or even get off a three-point attempt.
Poole took the ball as he curled around Zion Williamson and could have attempted a three, but instead tried to lean into defender Miles McBride. In the process Poole stepped over the three point line, failed to draw a foul and threw up a hopeless shot that hit the top of the backboard.
