An issue with one of the rims caused a 45-minute delay in the first quarter of the Dallas Mavericks’ home game against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday.
After Luka Doncic made a 3-pointer, he pointed to the referees that the rim appeared to be crooked. A new basket and backboard were brought in with 6:03 left in the opening period.
Following a 40-minute stoppage, the teams received five minutes to warm up before the game resumed.
When play was halted, the 76ers led the Mavericks 19-17.
