Down three in overtime to Denver with 4.9 seconds left, Minnesota's Martell Webster answered Timberwolves fans' prayers and intercepted a Nuggets inbound pass—only to leave them cursing his name after driving to the hoop instead of attempting a three to force double-OT.

Update: Minneapolis Star-Tribune reporter Jerry Zgoda says Webster knew the score and thought he could draw a foul by driving to the basket.
