No one in the NBA captures big moments quite like the Lakers’ Spanish broadcasters, Adrian Garica-Marquez and Francisco Pinto. For the second time in three years, the duo has captured the “Best Live Call” award, this time for their narration of Nick Young’s game-winning 3-pointer in San Antonio on Dec. 12.

As Young swished the 3-pointer with 7.4 seconds left in overtime, Garica-Marquez — the play-by-play announcer — broke out one of his many nicknames and added a culinary twist on the broadcast.
