Jaden Ivey invokes Chris Webber, calls timeout Pistons don't have in critical late-game scenario

Avert your eyes, Michigan basketball fans. Jaden Ivey pulled a Chris Webber on Wednesday.

The Pistons rookie was tasked with inbounding the ball with 9.7 seconds remaining in a game Detroit trailed the Chicago Bulls, 114-112. He couldn't find an open man and called a timeout. Standard procedure in a critical late-game situation. Except for one crucial detail.

An official blew the whistle, but not to grant a timeout. Ivey had just earned a technical foul for calling a timeout the Pistons didn't have.

Ivey triggers Michigan's collective PTSD with a costly excessive timeout call pic.
