The Philadelphia 76ers and the Boston Celtics went head-to-head in London, England, on Thursday night and fans in attendance were treated to quite the show.
From the Celtics fighting back from a 22-point deficit to win the game to the in-house entertainment during breaks in the action, there was never a dull moment at London’s O2 Arena on Thursday.
During a break in the action, English actor/comedian Jack Whitehall made his way onto the court to attempt a three-pointer while blindfolded in exchange for a prize. What he didn’t know, though, was that he was being set up from the get go.
Although Whitehall did end up coming pretty close to making the shot, the in-game host and the rest of the workers played it off like he had just made the shot and won some sort of fancy prize. However, their prank came to an end after he watched the instant replay on the jumbotron.
Everyone had a good laugh at the end of it all and the Celtics got the final one as they went on to outscore the Sixers 66-46 in the second half to win 114-103.
