On the New York Knicks' final possession of their 113-110 loss to the Washington Wizards on Thursday, guard Courtney Lee curiously passed up an in-rhythm 3-pointer in the corner. Lee told reporters that this was because Wizards assistant coach Sidney Lowe was standing up on the court yelling at him, which made him think a defender was nearby.

On Friday, the NBA's Last Two Minute Report was released, indicating that Lowe should have been assessed a technical foul for standing on the court next to Lee for several seconds.
