D-League Grants First Protest In History
Un fallo attribuito erroneamente a Bill Walker fa sì che vengano rigiocato gli ultimi secondi della sfida tra Utah e Colorado, nella NBDL
The NBA Development League has granted Utah's protest of its loss to Colorado last month, the first successful challenge in the league's eight-year history.
On Tuesday, the NBDL ordered the teams to replay the final 25.2 seconds of the game, with the score tied at 102.
Utah protested the 104-102 loss on Dec. 26 after Bill Walker was incorrectly disqualified by fouls with 25.2 seconds left. It should only have been his fifth foul; a foul against teammate J.R. Giddens with 9:24 remaining in the second quarter was mistakenly credited to Walker by Colorado's official scorer.
The replay will occur April 10 in Utah, with the teams' regularly scheduled game to follow.
