On the ensuing possession, Oladipo intercepted Gordon Hayward's inbound pass, knocking it away before running out the remainder of the clock to seal the victory.

Oladipo, who was named an All-Star for the first time in his career last season, entered Saturday averaging 22.3 points, 6.8 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game this season.
