Jefferson caught the ball on the left side of the court with ample space to get off a shot. That didn’t matter, though. Jefferson went into his shooting motion, started to follow through and then the ball just dropped, as the Brooklyn Game caught. Jefferson had an explanation for his poor shot after the game.

The ball might have slipped on this particular play, but Jefferson never hit an NBA 3-pointer before this night and rarely attempted them. He is now 0-of-5 from the 3-point line.
Jefferson isn’t so bad when he does what he was drafted to do. He finished a nice dunk later in the night.
