Damian Lillard smashed this dunk over the Washington Wizards with 2:21 left pulling the Blazers to 91-90. Unfortunately the Blazers fell short in the long run after the Wiz’ answered with three more critical plays and a buzzer-beating 3 pointer by Jordan Crawford to put the icing on the cake.
Per ESPN:
His buzzer-beating 3-pointer was still under review but Jordan Crawford knew it was good. And so did his Washington Wizards teammates, who engulfed him in a dogpile on the floor of the Rose Garden.
