    LeBron James on Malik Monk

    James (LAL) places his hand onto Monk's (SAC) left arm and impedes his movement as he pursues the loose ball.

    Reaves (LAL) is in the paint for less than three seconds when the shot is imminent.

    Davis (LAL) is drawn into the air on the pump fake toward Sabonis (SAC) and is not in a legal guarding position as contact occurs with Sabonis' body during his upward shooting motion.

    Reaves (LAL) moves alongside Fox's (SAC) path and maintains a legal guarding position as incidental contact occurs during the driving shot attempt.

  • 00:12.5 Stoppage: Out-of-Bounds Incorrect call

    The ball last touches Davis' (LAL) left arm before going out of bounds. Possession should have been awarded to SAC.
