– With the game looking like the Pelicans would pull it out, Marc Gasol hit a step back three pointer to send the game into OT.

– The Pelicans then took advantage in the overtime period and had the game won again before they let Troy Daniels hit a three to send the game into double overtime.

– Marc Gasol finished with a rare triple double of 28 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists.

– The Rockets and Celtics had a wild finish.

– Klay Thompson registers a career high of 60 points.

– He had 40 points at halftime.

– Wilt: 100 pts in 48 min = 2.08 pts per min, Klay: 60 pts in 29 min = 2.07 pts per min
