Warriors forward Kevin Durant should have been called for a double-dribble on Golden State’s final possession of Sunday’s 120-118 win over the Miami Heat, the league announced Monday.
In its latest Last Two Minute Report, the NBA found that Durant, who’s missed 3-pointer set up an offensive rebound and go-ahead free throws by teammate DeMarcus Cousins with 5.4 seconds to go, did not have his dribble interrupted by inadvertent contact from Heat guard Justice Winslow and “a discontinued dribble should have been called” on the Warriors’ all-star.
Following Sunday’s game, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra spoke out against the play.
