Courtney Williams dribbled around a screen and pulled up for an open 3-point look on the right wing with 1.6 seconds to go in overtime on Saturday afternoon at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
It was a simple play with the game tied at 87. No messing around, just a matter of taking the first available shot, and it went in.
C. Williams, who finished with 31 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists had just hit a game-tying 3-pointer with less space on the Atlanta Dream’s previous possession before teammate Elizabeth Williams rebounded a missed three by Michaela Onyenwere of the New York Liberty with 11.5 ticks remaining.
