Not having a playmaker was the least of Cleveland's concerns on Wednesday night, because had they simply knocked down their freebies at the charity stripe (17-of-34), this 3-pointer by Arron Afflalo in overtime wouldn't have affected the outcome of the game.
With the score locked at 112 in the extra period, the Sacramento Kings guard found himself wide open on the perimeter after receiving a pass from DeMarcus Cousins, drilling a long-range bucket to put his side up with 17.3 seconds remaining.
Sacramento held on for the 116-112 victory, sending the Cavaliers to their third-straight defeat and sixth in their last eight games.
