Troy Taormina / USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
It appears that the Houston Rockets got away with a key foul in Wednesday night's nail-biting victory over the San Antonio Spurs.
According to the NBA's Last-Two-Minute Report, Rockets big man Nene should've been called for a foul on the Spurs' Kawhi Leonard with about two seconds left in the contest. Leonard missed the shot, and the Rockets went on to win 101-99.
"RHH shows Nene (HOU) jumps from point A to point B and makes contact with Leonard's (SAS) body on the shot attempt," the report states.
