We’ll do our best impression of a Jomboy Media breakdown here. In the final minute of third quarter in Indianapolis last night, Luke Kornet drew a loose ball on Isaiah Jackson after boxing him out on the defensive glass. It’s clear as day that Jackson pushed Kornet in the back.
However, referee Jenna Schroeder initially sent teammate Sam Hauser , a surprisingly low 74.1% career free throw shooter, to the line. Hmmm. Honest mistake. After some protest from Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle, the officials got the right Celtic to take the free throws. Kornet’s actually better at the charity stripe at 78.
