No worse for wear after clocking a minute-and-change past his previously-set 18-minute restriction, Trendon Watford helped the Brooklyn Nets avoid overtime through a most-ironic shot choice: the bank shot. Too versatile to bench during November 19, 2024’s back-and-forth tangle against the Charlotte Hornets, the recently-returning forward positions himself for a “bully-ball” opportunity against Josh Green, with a four-inch, 40-pound edge in the metaphorical “tale of the tape.” Unbalanced, but not yet incapable as Green executes a “pull of the chair,” Watford stumbles into a perfectly-accurate off-the-glass bucket, affording Brooklyn an ultimately-insurmountable five-point lead in the final 40 seconds. The bucket — déjà vu of an and-one Watford collected just one possession prior — curtained a herculean crunchtime stretch in which the fourth-year talent scored Brooklyn’s final seven points. Outstanding throughout his second game back, Watford, in total, offered a 10-point, four-rebound, one-assist, one-steal, two-block deposit, alongside a +8 plus-minus in 19 minutes.
