The NBA announced that there were two incorrect non-calls, both that went against the Hawks, in the closing seconds of the team’s 104-98 win at the Trail Blazers Wednesday. Neither affected the outcome of the game as the Hawks had already taken the lead for good at the time on the infractions.
In Thursday’s Last Two Minutes Report, the NBA cited that the Blazers Allen Crabbe should have been called for a personal foul on Jeff Teague as the point guard drove to the basket with 59.4 seconds left. The Hawks led 100-96 at the time. Also, Meyers Leonard should have been called for a loose ball foul on Thabo Sefolosha during a rebound attempt with 11.3 seconds left. The Hawks led 102-96 at the time but Leonard put back the rebound to cut the Trail Blazers deficit to four points.
The Last Two Minutes report is an assessment of officiated events that occurred in the games that are within five points at the two-minute mark.
