NBA Admits Missed Calls in LA Clippers vs. Denver Nuggets
The LA Clippers went down to the wire with the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night, pulling out a big time win without Kawhi Leonard. Both teams were unhappy with the officiating at different points in the game, and Nuggets head coach Michael Malone was ejected in the fourth quarter.
The NBA has released their Last Two Minute Report for this game, and it includes two missed calls in the final two minutes. The first missed call the NBA detailed in their Last Two Minute Report for this game came with 1:11 remaining when Clippers center Ivica Zubac should have been called for a shooting foul against Nikola Jokic.
The second and final missed call the NBA detailed on this game’s Last Two Minute Report came with 14 seconds left when Jokic should have been called for a defensive three second violation on LA’s final offensive possession.
As previously mentioned, both teams were upset with the officiating at different points of this game, and the NBA revealed two missed calls, one that disadvantaged each team. Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray was also out for this game, so it was far from a fully-healthy battle, but it was still a very exciting game between two teams that could see each other in the playoffs.
