There are last-second heaves, and then there’s whatever Enes Kanter did Wednesday afternoon at Scotiabank Arena.
Kanter launched a prayer after corraling a rebound with the second-quarter game clock winding down. Not only did the toss not have nearly enough strength, but it also sailed fair left and landed several rows into the stands.
You can check out Kanter’s gaffe in the video here.
Unfortunately for the Celtics big man, countless folks on Twitter took a break from their Christmas Day festivities to roast him.
Kanter ain’t just throw it like that 🤦🏾♂️😂

It was an otherwise solid first half for Kanter, whose 12 points were second to only Kemba Walker’s 13 for the Celtics’ team lead through two quarters against the Toronto Raptors.
