- In the other game, Josh Hart fouled Tim Hardaway Jr. on a three-point attempt as time expired in New York's 94-93 win.
- Had the foul on Doncic been called, he would have shot free throws with a chance to tie or take the lead.
- Minnesota then stole the pass, made free throws, won 116-113, and took a 3-1 series lead before Wednesday's game.
