From SBNation: “The NBA is off on Saturday to prepare for the final day of the regular season on Sunday, but the Grizzlies’ scorekeeper may have clocked out a little early during the team’s Friday loss against the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Lakers got a closer-than-it-should-have-been, 123-120 victory over the remains of the Grizzlies in Memphis on Friday night to give themselves a chance to hold onto the eighth seed heading into the NBA play-in, but it turns out that they might have had to hold onto their lead a little longer than was necessary.
On Saturday morning, NBA Twitter user Ramiro Bentes noticed that due to a mistake made during a shot clock reset, the Lakers and Grizzlies accidentally played more than a minute of extra game time... and apparently neither team noticed:
‘Just realized the Lakers and Grizzlies played 13:06 minutes in the 3rd quarter last night. When the shot clock was supposed to be reset at 1:14, the game clock was also accidentally reset to 2:20. No one noticed and they played the rest of the way with the new game clock.’”
The NBA then confirmed the error https://x.com/mcten/status/1779311231842553941?s=46&t=Yz2rcBHCRvce95ldv9YOyw
