'The Wall' in Clippers' new arena baffles KD, but LA loses
With 10 minutes left in regulation of the LA Clippers' first regular-season game at the Intuit Dome on Wednesday, Kevin Durant found himself at the free throw line facing something he hasn't experienced in his 17 seasons as a pro.
The Phoenix Suns star went up against The Wall. And The Wall won, as the 88.4% career free throw shooter missed two, sending the sellout crowd at Intuit Dome into a frenzy.
Durant scored 12 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter but could have had two more if not for the distraction of The Wall, a steep section of fans behind the basket closest to the visitors bench.
