Tar Heels in NBA: Cole Anthony ends Magic’s six-game skid with buzzer-beating 3-pointer

Posted Jan 21, 2021
Cole Anthony didn’t want anything to do with his Orlando Magic losing a seventh consecutive game since he took over as starting point guard. He shot down that possibility when he retrieved a Timberwolves miss and headed down court. Anthony made an off-balance 3-pointer from the right wing at the buzzer to give Orlando a 97-96 victory Wednesday. (Tar Heel Tribune)
