The Lakers-Celtics game went to overtime after LeBron James missed a layup just before the buzzer, although replays showed that the Los Angeles superstar was fouled by Jayson Tatum on the crucial play.

The NBA has reportedly admitted the officials blew the call on LeBron. However, that's not changing the fact that uncalled foul cost the Lakers a win on the road.

Boston won in overtime, 125-121.

Many players reacted to the episode at the end of the 4th quarter. Anthony Davis slammed the officials, LeBron could not get the decision, while Lakers head coach Darvin Ham said that it's becoming increasingly difficult to win games and fight not only with opponents but with unfavorable calls from NBA refs.

The Lakers representatives were joined by multiple famous basketball people on social media.
