Putting deals that you didn’t work on on resume

Unique situation here: looking to lateral and the firm I’m looking to leave didn’t win/close many deals. However, we somehow closed a notable one in the industry that we work in but I didn’t really do anything on that deal. How bad would it be to put that on my resume?

Very bad, you wouldn't be able to answer any questions about the deal process

Just put shells for the deals you've worked on and can actually talk about
