NBA TV Analyst Roasted Russell Wilson Over the Nuggets’ Beautiful Alley-Oop Pass

The Nuggets took Game 1 of the Western Conference finals Tuesday night, beating LeBron James and the Lakers 132–126 in a game that got surprisingly close in the final minutes.

Los Angeles battled back in the fourth quarter, but when it got close to becoming a two-point game, Denver pulled off a beautiful play in transition that had everyone in the arena going wild and ended LA’s comeback hopes. 

It also led to a pretty good burn by NBA TV analyst Sam Mitchell, who took a shot at a courtside fan, Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson

Check out this alley-oop from Jamal Murray to Aaron Gordon … and stick around for Mitchell’s timely roast: 

Poor Russ.
