4. Marc Gasol go-ahead three over the Clippers

Currently in the NBA, there’s a trend going on where centers are stepping back behind the arc and knocking down shots. Marc Gasol is no exception to this trend.

In a rivalry game, against the Clippers, on November 16th, 2016, the Grizzlies were down one with 20 seconds left. Mike Conley dribbled the ball up the court as every one cleared out. He beat Reddick off the dribble. Then, DeAndre Jordan helped on the drive and left Gasol alone in the left corner. Conley kicked out to Gasol for corner three. Gasol celebrates his go-ahead basket with the iconic “McGregor walk.”
