Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks recently faced off against the Toronto Raptors.
As a result of the NBA rendering its regular season largely meaningless, nobody cared much about the outcome of the game itself. Rather, what fans couldnโt stop talking about afterwards was a particular moment that occurred between Doncic and a female referee.
It was one specific sequence caught fansโ attention:

Because of how unnatural Doncicโs move there was, folks couldnโt help but wonder what happened.
Some had less generous interpretations of the scene than others.

This has been a kooky week in the sports world. Between the revelation that Josh McDaniels traded away one of his stars because his wife was attracted to him and Bill Belichickโs โWalk of Shameโ video going viral, it would have taken a lot to steal the headlines.
But Doncic did it.
Obviously you always want to give people the benefit of the doubt. Particularly in chaotic situations.

That being said โ Doncicโs movements there were undeniably odd.
It isnโt hard to see why fans questioned the motives behind them.
Will Doncic, the Mavericks or the referee involved come out and address what happened at some point this week? Time will tell.
