4. Anthony Edwards beats the 3rd quarter buzzer with step-back three to cap a 28-9 run
Edwards struggled all night from the field, making just six of his 24-shot attempts. But something about the biggest moment makes him relish in the spotlight. Edwards danced on Aaron Gordon before stepping back behind the arc for a beautiful fall-away 3-pointer as the third quarter expired, silencing the Denver crowd as he flexed on them.

Despite a dreadful night offensively, Edward's aura and confidence continue to lead and motivate his teammates to believe in each other as much as he believes in them and himself.
