The final minute of Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals between the Los Angeles Clippers and Phoenix Suns was absolutely wild and it finished with a play that we’ll be seeing replays of for years.
And rightfully so.
The Suns pulled off a stunner on an absolute beauty of an inbounds play in the final second. Trailing by a point with 0/9 seconds left, Jae Crowder threw a perfect alley-oop in-bounds pass to Deandre Ayton that just beat the buzzer and gave the Suns a 104-103 win and a 2-0 series lead.
This play was a thing of beauty. It started with a great pick by Devin Booker. Then there was the perfect pass by Crowder. And it ended with an easy, and utterly impressive, dunk by Ayton.
