The Milwaukee Bucks secured a crucial win against the Houston Rockets, but the victory was marred by a controversial officiating error. With just 3.2 seconds left, Damian Lillard scored the decisive layup, giving the Bucks a 101-100 lead.
However, a critical mistake occurred earlier when Giannis Antetokounmpo stepped out of bounds, which went unnoticed by the officials. This error meant that Houston should have retained possession, potentially changing the game's outcome.
The missed call is particularly disheartening for the Rockets, who were in a strong position to improve their standings in the competitive Western Conference.
