Steven Adams helped the Oklahoma City Thunder avoid an embarrassing defeat Thursday at the hands of a Los Angeles Clippers team playing without four regular starters.
With the game tied at 117 and under 30 seconds to play, Adams outmuscled two Clippers under the hoop to tap back Russell Westbrook's miss for what would prove to be the game-winning bucket.
It was one of a game-high four offensive rebounds Adams recorded on the night, and certainly the biggest.
