Highlights

Jamal Crawford has been a human highlight reel his entire career, whether that be at age 20 or age 38. That’s why no matter how old he is, it’s always exciting at the bare minimum to have him on your team.

He’s still able to draw the “oohs and ahhs” from the crowd as he makes jaw-dropping plays like these:

Crawford’s best game as a whole game against the Dallas Mavericks on March 31, when he scored a season-high 24 points on 11-of-18 shooting from the field, propelling Minnesota to a one-point victory on the road.

Check out the highlights from this performance shortly after his 38th birthday:

While that was Crawford’s best game, it wasn’t his best moment. His best moment, in my opinion, came against the Utah Jazz at the Target Center when he buried a corner-3 with less than 30 seconds left to give the Wolves a two-point lead.

Crawford finished that game with 17 points in 19 minutes, helping the Timberwolves win a tight one at home.
