The Washington Wizards beats the Golden State Warriors 112-108 Wednesday, thanks in part to 22 points, six rebounds and four blocks from forward Markieff Morris.
After the game, Morris was asked specifically about the two free throws he made with three seconds to play, and his response was hilarious.
“I don’t mean to jinx myself, but my wife tells me all the time I’ve got big nuts,” he said. “I put my nuts on the line.”

It’s not entirely clear what Morris’ wife means by “big nuts,” but we’re really hoping she’s talking figuratively.
Morris is shooting a career-high 82.3 percent from the free-throw line this season but only 74.4 percent in the fourth-quarter, so maybe his nuts aren’t quite as big as he—or his wife—thinks.
