  • 00:06.7 Foul: Shooting Incorrect call
    Jalen Brunson on Jeff Green

    Replay review of the foul called on Brunson (DAL) pursuant to a coach?s challenge was incorrectly deemed unsuccessful and the call should have been overturned. The call was upheld because of contact made by Brunson to Green?s (BKN) wrist/arm after first making contact with the ball. Given the additional contact, the play was deemed to have not met the standard for clear and conclusive evidence to overturn the call. However, upon further review, the initial ball contact was enough to dislodge and affect Green?s shot attempt and the subsequent contact should have been deemed incidental to a legal basketball movement.

  • 00:05.8 Foul: Personal Correct call
    Kyrie Irving on Tim Hardaway Jr.

    Irving (BKN) commits a take foul on Hardaway Jr. (DAL).
