The 2016-17 NBA season featured some thrilling moments including multiple game winning shots, but what were the 10 best buzzer beaters?
This 2016-17 NBA season will be one that is remembered for a long time because of Russell Westbrook, but there were plenty of other memorable moments as well. The season featured some thrilling games that were capped off by epic buzzer beaters.
It was difficult to narrow them down to just ten because there were so many great ones. But here they are, the 10 best buzzer beaters of the 2016-17 NBA regular season.
10. Marcus Morris tip-in vs Wizards
This Marcus Morris buzzer beater may not seem very spectacular, but if you pay close attention you will notice something. Not only does Marcus tip it in on his brother’s team, the Washington Wizards, Marcus tips it in over Markieff.
If that does not make a game-winning buzzer beater 10 times better I don’t know what else could. The (slightly) younger brother got the best of Markieff, take a look at the shot here.
9. Marc Gasol tip-in vs Nuggets
With 00.7 seconds left and the Grizzlies down one, they called on their man to deliver and Marc Gasol did just that. In what was a tough spot to inbound the ball, Vince Carter floated it over to Gasol who provided the soft touch for the win.
This game-winner was so special because of the degree of difficulty from Gasol. See it below.
