Tyrese Maxey

In a blink, Philadelphia's 24-point lead had vanished, and the short-handed Warriors found themselves with a one-point advantage with eight seconds remaining. Maxey launched a potential game-winner, but his jumper fell short, only for rookie VJ Edgecombe to snatch the offensive rebound and convert the putback with 0.9 seconds to go, putting Philadelphia ahead 99-98. Lost in fray, Golden State's De'Anthony Melton had leaked out in a sprint, catching a full-court inbounds pass with a clear path to the basket. Maxey, one of the league's fastest guards, ignited into his own sprint downcourt, flying to reject Melton's layup attempt off the backboard precisely as the buzzer sounded.
