Luka Doncic had already been lucky not to receive his 16th technical foul, synonymous with suspension, during the match against the Warriors. His small gesture had simply earned him a fine of 35,000 dollars in stride.
Except that by dint of challenging almost all the arbitration decisions against him, more or less vehemently, the Dallas superstar risked a sanction at some point.
It finally happened last night, during the third quarter of a new defeat, the fourth in a row, against the Hornets. Apart from a miracle and a cancellation of this 16th technical foul by the NBA, Luka Doncic should therefore back-to-back in Indianapolis next night.
A really not ideal scenario as the Mavericks left the Top 10 in the Western Conference…
