NBA Last 2 Minute Reports Says Jerami Grant Buzzer-Beater Was Illegal

The NBA Last Two Minute Report for last night’s Portland Trail Blazers-Phoenix Suns game has been released and it confirms that Blazers forward Jerami Grant traveled on his game-winning jump shot, which should have been disallowed. The report describes Grant’s attempt as follows:

Grant (POR) gathers the ball with one hand and then takes three steps before releasing the shot attempt.

The buzzer-beating bucket gave Portland a 108-106 victory, avoiding overtime.

That’s not the only gripe the Suns will have with the officials after this loss. The report cites two other errors in the final 24 seconds, both benefiting the Blazers.
