In the NBA, Los Angeles Clippers fans came up with a creative way to distract Denver Nuggets players during free throws — by wearing horse masks.
Supporters often turn to unusual tactics to boost their team’s performance, Idman.biz reports.
While there’s no official explanation behind this particular choice, many believe it’s a playful nod to Nuggets star Nikola Jokić’s well-known love for horses.
Back in 2023, after winning the NBA Finals, Jokić openly expressed his eagerness to return to his hometown of Sombor, Serbia, to tend to his horses — so much so that he even considered skipping Denver’s championship parade for horse racing commitments.
For the record, Game 3 of the series ended in a blowout 117–83 win for the Clippers.
