Devin Vassell goes viral with an anime-like three-point shot to beat the clock

Now that they are playing against the Timberwolves, his role has continued to remain the same. He has been a reliable shooter for the Spurs, as he also does well with his hustle and defense.

Despite being a role player, it was Vassell who attracted the most attention in Game 2. When the shot clock was running out, Julian Champagnie threw a last-ditch pass to Vassell.

The Spurs' #24 made sure he got something up before the buzzer sounded, and he jumped, caught the ball in mid-air, and shot it. Not only was it impressive, but it was also effective.

With that play, Vassell got comparisons to the anime named Kuroko's Basketball, where a character named Midorima had what Vassell did as his signature move. Considering that is an animated show, Vassell made the impossible possible with his highlight play.
