The NBA has officially admitted an officiating error regarding Tyrese Maxey's four-point play in the last 25 seconds of the 76ers Game 5 win over the Knicks, confirming New York was blatantly robbed.
The league's Last 2 Minute Report indicated that Maxey committed a traveling violation by moving his right foot after taking two legal steps, just before being fouled by Mitchell Robinson.
After that sequence, Josh Hart went to the free-throw line scoring just one of his attempts, putting the Knicks up three. Following that, Maxey threw a hail mary from the logo and scored another miracle three-point shot to send the game to OT.
During overtime, another critical oversight was recorded when Josh Hart of the Knicks was incorrectly ruled out of bounds, depriving the Knicks of another possession when trailing by two points.
