Referee Ed Malloy has explained that Luka Doncic received a technical foul for profanity directed at an official during the Lakers’ loss to the Nuggets. This was Doncic’s 15th technical of the season, bringing him close to an automatic suspension.
Doncic, who scored 27 points in the game, stated he was trying to avoid speaking out and questioned why other players weren’t penalized for similar comments.
