15-year Orlandoversary: Nelson’s trey sinks Kings, 92-89

A one-time All-Star and the franchise’s all-time leader in assists, Jameer Nelson was perhaps underappreciated during his time with the Orlando Magic.

Down the stretch of games however, it wasn’t uncommon for the little guy to come up big. That’s what he did on this day 15 years ago.

Nelson’s trey with less than two seconds remaining was the difference as the Magic came up with a big road win over the Sacramento Kings, 92-89.

Orlando had lost 11 straight at Arco Arena as it arrived on Dec. 4, 2006. The Magic however, were red hot and off to a stellar 13-5 start.
