World Record Broken For Longest Basketball Game Ever Played

The teams played for 5 days, 1 minute, and 7 seconds and all 23 players lived at the court during that time.

Players gathered in Canada to break the world record for the longest basketball game ever played…and they succeeded! Beginning last Friday, the teams played for 5 days, 1 minute, and 7 seconds. The 23 players lived at the court, with food, refreshments, and spaces to sleep provided by volunteers. Ice and epsom salt soaks were also made available. But the pain was worth the gain because they raised $60,000 for charity.
