With the clock winding under 10 seconds in the second quarter, Julie Allemand drives into traffic looking for a final shot. Cut off inside, she kicks it back up top to a trailing Dearica Hamby, who gathers and fires from the top of the key with under two seconds left. The ball bounces on the rim four times before finally dropping—as Hamby crouches near the arc, frozen Kawhi-style, waiting for it to fall. The shot capped a 17–2 run and a 59-point half for Los Angeles, its highest-scoring half of the season. Hamby finished with 26 points, six rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block. · Jul 16, 2025
