What happened: Kelsey Mitchell hit a stepback 3-pointer late in the fourth quarter of Game 3. The basket cut the margin to two and set up a one-possession finish.

Why it matters: Late shot-making carries extra weight in a postseason game, and this one erased a two-possession cushion in a hurry. It also fit the recent scoring burden of the same Kelsey Mitchell who combined for 75 points on Sept. 26.

What to watch: The closing possessions in Game 3 will decide whether the shot stands as the turning point. The postgame line will show how much scoring Mitchell supplied down the stretch.
