“Unforgettable Overtimes: Discover the NBA’s Most Thrilling High-Scoring Showdowns!”
There was no room left on these scoresheets. The pencils ran out of lead. Pens ran out of ink.

Detroit Pistons 186, Denver Nuggets 184 (3 OT); Dec. 13, 1983
Not only did the Pistons set the record for most points scored by one team in a regular-season game, but this contest also holds the mark for most total points by both teams. And the box score reads like an absolute doozy; four players dropped more than 40 points and Kiki VanDeWeghe led the way with 51 and Alex English added 47 for the Nuggets in a losing effort in triple overtime.
