Lakers Win Set Tweets Per Second Record
Sports are making a real impact on Twitter traffic (and downtime) this month. Twitter revealed that it achieved a record 3,085 tweets per second on Thursday night as the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Boston Celtics in Game 7 to win the NBA Championship.

On average, Twitter receives about 750 tweets per second (65 million total tweets per day).
Basketball isn’t the only sport that has been popular on Twitter lately though. Twitter highlighted the most tweeted goals of the World Cup the past week:
Japan scores against Cameroon on June 14 in their 1-0 victory (2,940 TPS)
Brazil scores their first goal against North Korea in their 2-1 June 14 victory (2,928 TPS)
Mexico ties South Africa in their June 11 game (2,704 TPS)
We can likely look forward to more tweeting records as the World Cup goes on.
