McGrady had the ball and was probably dribbling to the other side of the court, looking for a teammate to pass the ball to. He found Juwan Howard near the basket and passed him the ball. Juwan scored two points on an easy layup. McGrady got credit for an assist.

If the game is close and they really need to score some points, he is the guy they go to. They expect him to be successful, so they tell him to get the ball and make the play. |
