The Lakers defeated the Spurs 118–116 on Wednesday night, but the outcome could have been very different after a late turnover committed by Los Angeles guard Marcus Smart. With 1.2 seconds remaining in the game, Smart stepped on the end line while inbounding the ball—a line violation—which resulted in a turnover and San Antonio receiving possession of the ball with a chance to tie or take the lead.
