Payton Pritchard Continues Buzzer-Beater Mastery

Celtics guard Payton Pritchard has solidified his reputation as a premier buzzer-beater specialist. Following his iconic half-court heave in the 2024 NBA Finals, Pritchard recently drained a stepback three-pointer to beat the second-quarter buzzer against the Thunder. With clutch-time shooting splits of 45.5% FG, 50% 3PT, and 100% FT, there is growing sentiment that Pritchard deserves a larger role in high-leverage situations to capitalize on his elite shot-making and fearlessness.
