NBA Confirms Three Late Officiating Errors in Warriors–Suns Finish as Booker Urges End to L2M

The league’s review acknowledged mistakes without affecting Golden State’s 119-116 victory.

Overview

  • The Last Two Minute report found an incorrect foul call on Trayce Jackson-Davis against Devin Booker with under a minute left.
  • With 9.1 seconds remaining, the report deemed it an incorrect non-call when Booker fouled Stephen Curry on the inbounds before Curry scored with 5.7 seconds left.
  • The review also said Booker illegally retrieved the ball in the backcourt on the final possession, a violation that was not whistled.
  • Devin Booker called the L2M a waste and said it should be eliminated, pressing for greater consistency in officiating.
  • League scrutiny over officiating has intensified with recent fines and ejections, and the game featured Draymond Green’s first-half ejection.
