Clinging to a one-point lead with less than a second left, the Denver Nuggets tried to prioritize protecting the basket. But they were outsmarted by a clever play call.
The Memphis Grizzlies ran a smart play in which JaMychal Green set a quick back pick on Kenneth Faried, which in turn opened up the lob to Marc Gasol over a smaller Emmanuel Mudiay.
