Deandre Ayton slammed home the game-winner with 0.9 seconds left to lift the Suns to a Game 2 win over the Los Angeles Clippers.

Deandre Ayton had 24 points for the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night and none bigger than his last two that came with 0.9 seconds left to give the Suns the 104=103 win over the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals.

Just when it looked like the Clippers were going to steal Game 2 with an assist from the refs, the Suns pulled out a stunner to take a 2-0 series lead without Chris Paul playing in the series yet.

After Paul George reverted to Pandemic P moments earlier after missing a pair of free throws, after he hit a pair of go-ahead baskets, the Suns retained possession after a missed shot from Devin Booker.

Deandre Ayton wins it for Suns after Paul George chokes for Clippers

After a lengthy review, the Suns kept the ball and coach Monty Williams called a play that will go down as one of the best in franchise history. The former No. 1 pick, Ayton hit the biggest bucket of his career in what has been a breakout postseason for the former Arizona Wildcat.

Jae Crowder will never make a better pass.

We are now one game closer to the Suns in 4 repeating itself and the Suns beating the other team from LA.

With the Suns optimistic that Paul will return for Game 3 on Thursday and the Clippers still without Kawhi Leonard, the Suns are two wins shy of making the NBA Finals.
