Nic Claxton’s layup beat the buzzer — and beat the 76ers, 105-103, on Saturday night time in a play he referred to as one of many highlights of his profession. The Nets heart put again a Keon Johnson miss, an acrobatic shot that simply barely beat the clock and subsequently noticed him “mobbed” by Ziaire Williams, Trendon Watford and the remainder of the Nets earlier than a surprised sellout crowd of 20,431. “Originally, I didn’t even know that I did beat the buzzer, so I was just trying to process everything, and I was just looking in the crowd, just looking around. And I was like, ‘I think it was good.’ And all people got here and simply mobbed me. It was a terrific feeling, a terrific feeling,” mentioned Claxton. “It’s positively high three [moments of my career]. All of the years I’ve been hooping, it’s positively three or two.” -via New York Post / February 23, 2025
