Two monster dunks by Brandon Ingram and a resounding throw down by Devin Booker among Friday night's best plays
Saturday 2 March 2019 08:37, UK
Kawhi Leonard connected with a clutch game-winning jump shot to earn the Toronto Raptors a dramatic 119-117 win over the Portland Trail Blazers.
The Raptors' late-game execution has cost them at times this season but Leonard made no mistake against the Blazers, holding possession for the game's final possession as the clock ticked down.
Leonard utilised a screen from team-mate Kyle Lowry on Portland forward Mo Harkless to get a favourable defensive match-up against Damian Lillard.
The Raptors star then drove right, stopping for a baseline pull-up jumper over the Trail Blazers point guard with 3.8 seconds remaining.
Leonard toppled out of bounds and could only watch as his shot bobbled around on both sides of the rim before dropping softly through the net to give the Raptors a two-point lead with 1.5 seconds to go.
With no timeouts remaining, Lillard took the in-bounds pass and heaved a fullcourt shot that cannoned back off the Toronto backboard, sealing the Raptors' victory.
