QUESTION: Why was Luka Doncic assessed a technical foul with 7:51 left in the third quarter?

 

SCOTT: “Doncic was assessed a technical foul for his use of profanity directed at the officials in protest to a no-call that was correctly judged in postgame video review.”

 

QUESTION: So, you reviewed the call after the game and it was correct?

 

SCOTT: “That’s correct.”

 

QUESTION: What caused the ejection of the fan in the third quarter after he was pointed out by Kyrie Irving?

 

SCOTT: “Kyrie informed the officials of a fan issue and we in turn immediately alerted arena security to address the situation.”
