NBA Admits Missed Calls in Milwaukee Bucks vs. Memphis Grizzlies

In this story:
The Milwaukee Bucks suffered a bad loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday night, losing their final game before the All-Star break in disappointing fashion. Memphis was without almost all of their best players, including Ja Morant, Desmond Bane, Jaren Jackson Jr., Marcus Smart, Luke Kennard, and others.
Despite Memphis being this shorthanded, they were able to upset the Bucks in this one, which was one of their most impressive wins all season. The NBA has released their Last Two Minute Report for this game, and it includes three missed calls in the final two minutes of the game.
The first missed call on the Last Two Minute Report came with 1:09 remaining in the game, when Ziaire Williams should have been called for a loose ball foul against Brook Lopez. The NBA explained this, writing, "Williams (MEM) dives into Lopez's (MIL) upper body, allowing him to then make contact with the ball thereafter."
The next missed call on the Last Two Minute Report came with 39.7 seconds remaining in the game, when Giannis Antetokounmpo should have been called for a lane violation prior to securing a rebound off a missed free throw.
The third and final missed call on the Last Two Minute Report came with 14.0 seconds remaining in the game, when Vince Williams Jr. should have been called for a traveling violation prior to committing an offensive foul.
