NBA game lasted too long – Lakers win after overtime against Memphis
Technical problems caused “overtime” in the NBA game between the Memphis Grizzlies and the Los Angeles Lakers.
Over a minute too much
In the third quarter of the duel from the North American professional basketball league, the clock was set to 2:20 minutes remaining after an interruption, although there were actually only 74 seconds left to play.
“The error was not noticed in real time by the teams, the referees, the timekeeper and the statistics team,” said NBA spokesman Tim Frank on Saturday (local time) in response to an ESPN request. It was not possible to resolve the situation during the game and adjust the time again. In the additional 66 seconds, the Grizzlies and Lakers each scored two points, LA won 123-120.
The Lakers’ best thrower was 39-year-old veteran LeBron James with 37 points. His teammate Anthony Davis also had a strong day and had 36 points and 14 rebounds.
