"Oh, What a Shot by Bogdanović: Serb Sinks Half-Court Three-Pointer, Stuns Americans /VIDEO/"

He shot 6/9 from the field, tallying 17 points in total, signaling to his coach that he's a serious contender for significant minutes in the upcoming playoff games.

One of the game's most memorable moments occurred when, with just three seconds left on the shot clock, the Serbian sharpshooter launched a three-pointer from near half-court. The shot, as basketball fans would say, "ripped the net" and left everyone in the stands in awe. This isn't the first, nor likely the last, such spectacular three-pointer Bogdanović has hit in his NBA career.

The Clippers secured the ninth seed and are set to host the tenth-seeded Warriors on Wednesday, after Portland defeated Sacramento 122-110 to clinch the eighth spot. Although the Clippers and Trail Blazers finished with identical 42-40 records, Portland held the tie-breaker due to a better head-to-head record within the Western Conference.

The Los Angeles squad started the season with a dismal 6-21 record but managed to rebound, extending the franchise's record to 15 consecutive winning seasons. This currently stands as the longest active streak in the NBA and the fourth-longest in league history.

Stephen Curry led the Warriors in this matchup with 24 points, shooting 4/9 from beyond the arc, as his team concluded the season with a 37-45 record. He played only 29 minutes, having appeared in four of the last five games after missing the previous 27 due to a right knee injury.

The Clippers' bench outscored the Warriors' reserves 71-56. Alongside Maturina, Bogdan Bogdanović also stood out with 17 points, tying his season-high with five made three-pointers, including three consecutive ones in the fourth quarter.

He got his chance after three games on the bench. Previously, he played two and a half minutes against the Kings, following five games where he wasn't given an opportunity. This once again demonstrated that his lack of playing time was undeserved.
