The Clippers and Kings absolutely gave NBA fans the best game of the year in a double-OT instant classic

This was the game of the year. No doubt about it.

You’re going to go a long time before you find a better basketball game this season than the one the Kings and Clippers played on Friday night.

This was absolutely the best basketball game of the year and it will probably remain that throughout the rest of the season — playoffs included. It’s absolutely nuts how wild this game got.

The Kings won outright, 176-175. And, yes, that score is wild. But it doesn’t even begin to paint the picture of how crazy this game got.

I know most of you missed this because, well, you have a life. The game didn’t end until about 1:30 a.m. on the East Coast. Y’all had Saturday plans, obviously.

But yerboi watched the whole thing to hold it down for you. Let’s just come through a few stats to show you exactly how wild this thing got.
