Memphis Grizzlies: top 5 plays from 2016
By Alex Smith
5. Courtney Lee beats the buzzer before halftime
On January 12th, 2016, with 5 seconds left in the half and the ball in James Harden’s hands, many would think James Harden would be the one adding to his list of buzzer-beaters.
The Grizzlies had other plans for the superstar.
Terrence Jones set on Tony Allen to free up Harden, Zach Randolph and forced a bad pass that was intercepted. Allen, then, threw the ball backwards up to Courtney Lee, who caught the ball at the FedEx Forum logo and jacked up a deep three to beat the horn, adding to his list of buzzer-beating shots.
