The Denver Nuggets once again erased a double-digit deficit in the second half and extended the Western Conference semifinals series to a Game 7 against the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Nuggets came back from 18 points down to defeat the Clippers, 111-98, in Game 6 from ESPN’s Wide World of Sports in Florida on Sunday. Game 7 is scheduled for Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET.

They are the first team in NBA history to play a Game 7 in four consecutive series and the first since play-by-play stat keeping began in 1997 with three 15-point comebacks when facing elimination in the playoffs, per ESPN Stats & Information.
