NBA Officials To Interact With Fans On Twitter During Lakers Vs. Warriors Game

NBA officials announced will interact with fans during the Los Angeles Lakers game against the Golden State Warriors on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Fans can tweet @OfficialNBARefs or use the hashtag #RefWatchParty to interact with referees who will have access to the Twitter account during both the Lakers-Warriors game as well as the contest between the Philadelphia 76ers and San Antonio Spurs.

The league originally tried this out last year during Game 3 of the NBA Finals and it received positive feedback, leading to it being brought back this season. The NBA and and the referee union have worked in collaboration on this project and have more upcoming games scheduled to do the same thing, including playoff games.
