Gordon Hayward had a career performance in Game 3, but his play in the dying seconds may have played a part in his team's defeat.
With his Jazz down three, the All-Star swingman threw a long pass that sailed out of bounds, effectively ending Utah's chances of sending the game into overtime.
Despite the late error, Hayward still put together a spectacular offensive game, finishing with 40 points, eight rebounds, and four assists in the 111-106 defeat to the Los Angeles Clippers.
