What happened
Frieda Buhner missed a 23-foot three-point jumper with 8:37 remaining in the second quarter, per an ESPN play-by-play update. The score stood at 22-17 at the time of the attempt.
Why it matters
Individual mid-quarter misses rarely move betting markets on their own, but a string of empty possessions from the perimeter can swing live spreads and totals. Tracking shot quality and shooter usage on volume threes offers a read on pace and offensive rhythm.
What to watch
Watch whether Buhner is given a second look from beyond the arc in the same possession-cluster and whether the trailing side closes the five-point gap before halftime.
