The Mavericks snapped a four-game losing streak as they try to make a late push for a playoff spot.
A few hours later, NBA officials announced they had rescinded the All-Star’s most recent technical foul and the subsequent one-game suspension. Doncic responded to that news with the kind of dazzling performance theHe finished with 25 points, seven rebounds and six assists, helping the Mavericks snap a four-game losing streak with a dominant 127-104 victory over the short-handed Indiana Pacers."That’s what he does," coach Jason Kidd said.
Indiana has lost three straight and six of eight as they move closer to locking up a lottery pick. And they had no chance with Doncic working his magic. Doncic had picked up his 16th technical that was rescinded on Sunday in the team's second loss to Charlotte. The technical came with 7:51 remaining in the third quarter of a 110-104 loss when Doncic argued a no-call after missing a shot on a drive to the basket.Under NBA rules, any player who receives 16 technical fouls in a regular season is suspended for 1 game.
In fact, Carlisle thinks the league should rescind more technical calls. Perhaps that's because he already has a league-leading 11 among coaches this season.
