Houston Rockets center Boban Marjanovic, known as one of the league's fan favorites, once again endeared himself to fans with a remarkable gesture.
During their final regular-season game against the Los Angeles Clippers on the road on Sunday, April 14, the Serbian big man made a playful move for the fans.
Marjanovic intentionally missed the second of two free throws after naturally missing the first one so that the Crypto.com Arena crowd could receive a free Chick-fil-A sandwich.
The 35-year-old executed this gesture even though the game was not far from reach, with the Rockets leading 105-97 with 4:44 remaining.
The Clippers have a promotion where fans can get a free Chick-fil-A sandwich if a visiting team misses two consecutive free throws in the fourth quarter.
Rockets survive the Clippers despite Boban Marjanovic's hilarious play
The game was non-bearing for both sides, as their fate for the season had already been sealed.
The Clippers were locked in as the fourth seed in the Western Conference, while the Rockets, regardless of the game's outcome, will miss the postseason as the 11th seed.
Marjanovic's appearance on the court was an indication of this fact, as he rarely sees action. The Rockets cap off their campaign with a 116-105 victory.
