After Nikola Vucevic gave the Orlando Magic a 108-105 lead with a three-pointer from the left wing (and with the help a generous roll), Detroit Pistons guard Langston Galloway promptly responded with a three of his own with 1.4 seconds left to ultimately send the game to overtime.

The Pistons did a nice job executing the play drawn up by head coach Dwane Casey to get the team a quick look out of the inbound. Power forward Christian Wood set two screens to free up Galloway, who hit a tough shot while falling down to his left. Galloway went 4-10 (3-9 3PT) and finished the night with 11 points in 30 minutes.
Unfortunately for Detroit, they were unable to capitalize on Galloway's heroics in overtime, ultimately falling 116-112. The loss puts the Pistons at 19-38 on the season, six games back of Orlando for the East's no. 8 seed.
Galloway is having a solid third season with the Pistons, averaging 14.1 points per 36 minutes while shooting 39.9% from three—including a league-leading 62% from the right corner—which would mark his career-high if the season ended today.
