Desmond Mason hits 14-footer to lift Bucks past Grizzlies

MILWAUKEE (AP) Mo Williams had a chance to create a shot for himself in the closing seconds. Instead he trusted his recently re-acquired friend, Desmond Mason, to come through in the clutch.

Mason, who re-signed with the Bucks for two years this offseason, made a 14-foot jumper with 13.6 seconds left off Williams' 12th assist, and Memphis' Pau Gasol missed a tying 3-pointer, giving Milwaukee a 102-99 victory over the Grizzlies on Wednesday night.

"One dribble, pull up, I shoot tons of them in practice," Mason said. "I just took to the elbow and pulled up with confidence." (Full Story)
