Social media skewered the Washington Wizards for their lack of execution in their attempt to foul the Los Angeles Clippers before they won at the buzzer.
The Wizards executed their attempted foul.
The NBA's Last Two Minute report for the game Wednesday said that Bradley Beal should not have shot the ball because he was in a foul position. The game would have been decided by two free throws by Kennard.
Instead, the foul was called on Beal and he went to the free-throw line. The Clippers trailed by as many as 35 points before storming back with an 80 point second half to win.
I have no words, I was frustrated when I had to go back in. The game should have been a rest one for the starters. It is plain and simple.
The Wizards lost for the fourth time this season, dropping them to 23-25 on the season. It led to more speculation about the future of Beal, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer.
The NBA's acknowledgment of the missed call won't soothe the frustration of the Wizards, and it isn't promising.
