4. Terrence Ross, 51 points vs. LA Clippers

Fun Fact:

Remember how on No. 5, I mentioned that Andre Miller only made 16 3-pointers that entire season? Terrence Ross took more 3-pointers than that in this one game. Unfortunately, they didn’t come away with the win — the Clippers took this one 126-118.

Favorite Shot:

Terrence Ross played a more fun game of basketball than anyone else on this list. It wouldn’t be right to only include one of his shots. Here’s the top 5:

5. The end-of-quarter dagger

4. The deep three

3. The even deeper three

2. and 1. Putback, steal, alley-oop
