Buzzer beater? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

swat

(Other definitions for swat that I've seen before include "Hit (insect) sharply" , ".`Twas quite a blow" , "Hit smartly" , "Deal a quick and effective blow (to)" , "Hit a wasp or fly" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and the LA Times.
