'Error' led to extra time on clock in Lakers win vs. Grizzles

NEW ORLEANS -- More than a minute of extra game time was added to the clock in the third quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers' 123-120 win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday, an NBA spokesperson confirmed to ESPN.

"We have confirmed that the game clock was inaccurately set in the third quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers-Memphis Grizzlies game last night at FedEx Forum," league spokesperson Tim Frank said in a statement Saturday. "After a shot clock violation, the clock was set at 2:20 when it should have been at 1:14. The error was not noticed in real time by the teams, the referees, the game clock operator or the stats crew.
