The Islanders were down by 24 points when they got the ball with eight seconds remaining and nothing to play for outside of a +22.5-point cover for their bettors.

Ross Williams made those bettors really sweat, waiting until the very last moment to take a step-back three that would hit nothing but net with straight zeros on the clock.
