As it turned out, while Grant was shooting, guard ShaedonSharpe had already run by him at the free-throw line and toward the basket. “I missed the shot and I see him flying in,” Grant said.
ShaedonSharpe’s put-back slam dunk with 5:26 left in the game put Portland up 91-83, sending the home crowd into a frenzy. Minnesota shot 7 for 39 (18%) from the 3-point line.
