Klay Thompson may be one of the NBA’s best shooters, but his attempt at a game-tying heave as time expired during the Warriors' loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday became the butt of some jokes.
After Nuggets guard Reggie Jackson missed a free throw that would have sealed the win, the Warriors went into scramble mode, racing the ball up the floor to Thompson to get off a potential game-tying shot before the buzzer sounded. The Warriors executed well, getting Thompson a look on the move heading toward the basket near the three-point line in the three seconds they had to go the length of the floor.
