Lou Williams of the LA Clippers admitted that he missed that wide-open layup in their Christmas day win over the Los Angeles Lakers. Fortunately, Anthony Davis and maybe even the referees bailed him out.

The play below was one of the questionable calls in the Battle of LA. Replay reveals that Davis made contact with Williams right after the Clippers' sixth man released the ball. As such, the contact didn't necessarily affect the shot. Williams just got lucky.

A fan told Williams that he might make the Shaqtin-A-Fool reel for this one. Look at his epic response below.

Williams had an off night on Christmas as he tallied just six points. However, he did make it up by dishing it out seven times. Nevertheless, when the Clippers backup guard is out there on the floor, teams are fully aware of his capabilities. Time and time again, he has showcased his clutch gene and capacity to perform really well under pressure. It just wasn't his night on Christmas but at least they got the win.

The Clippers have a chance to win two straight against the Utah Jazz on Saturday. Fans should expect Williams to bounce back. He likely won't miss any layups this time around.
