Here's something you will literally never see in a regulation NBA game: on Sunday, the Las Vegas Summer League game between the Atlanta Hawks and the D-League Selects team went to double overtime...and "last basket wins" rules.
That's right, sudden death overtime in basketball.
Tied at 88 after regulation, the teams remained locked 92-92 after a two-minute overtime frame. From there, two minutes were put on the clock and the teams were told the next basket would win. Enter Devin Ebanks, who caught an errant Dennis Schroder pass and hit a layup, giving the D-League team the victory.
