From a nearly identical angle, Brandon Ingram had a potential game-winning shot against the Utah Jazz for the second time during the 2019-20 season. The one in January went in, but this time, the attempt rattled out. As a result, New Orleans sustained a difficult loss in first of eight seeding games, after building a 16-point lead in the second half. Utah roared back in the fourth quarter, holding a 27-17 edge.
IT WAS OVER WHEN…
Ingram’s shot would not go down at the buzzer, allowing Utah to prevail. The Jazz took their two-point lead with 6 seconds left, when below-average foul shooter Rudy Gobert sank two clutch free throws.
