Los Angeles Clippers fans' 'The Wall', a section of passionate fans, seemed to affect Suns stars Kevin Durant and Devin Booker at the free throw line.
The Los Angeles Clippers could not christen the new Intuit Dome with a victory in the $2 billion-plus stadium's regular season debut on Wednesday night, as the team fell to the Phoenix Suns, 116-113, in overtime. But the new arena's environment, particularly in "The Wall", a section of seating dedicated to only the most passionate Clippers fans, was certainly a factor in the game.
When asked about "The Wall" after the game, Durant would not go as far to acknowledge its effectiveness, but the 17-year veteran admitted that it was something he was not accustomed to seeing. "The Wall" almost has a student section feel to it, and it certainly seemed to impact the game. Suns star Devin Booker, who also missed a free throw in the face of "The Wall", seemed to think as much while speaking to reporters in a video shared by Ben Golliver ofSuns’ Devin Booker on the Clippers’ “Wall” fan section: “I missed a free throw, man. I was pissed. missed two down there, too, so that s— might work. You spend $2 billion and put a wall up.
