Mark Cuban Says Luka Doncic Gets No Respect From Referees After Win Against The Lakers

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is not one to shy away from speaking his mind. Following their latest game against the Los Angeles Lakers, Cuban made it known that he was not pleased with the way the referees officiated Luka Doncic. 

Doncic was feeling it against the Lakers, putting up 35 points, 14 rebounds and 13 assists on 50.0% shooting from the field. However, the Mavericks superstar just attempted seven free throws which fell short of his usual 11.4 free throw attempts for the season. He also battled foul trouble all game long with five fouls.

The Mavericks shot just 17 free throws on the night while the Lakers finished with 27. Mavericks survived the double-overtime thriller despite the free throw discrepancy, but Cuban made sure to take a shot at the referees after the game.

 “Stan van Gundy is absolutely right. Worst officiated game. Luka gets no respect. Unreal.”
