One of the most important NBA journalists attacks Luka Doncic

The Slovenian has been one of the best players in the world for years, but his continuous complaints about the referees are annoying.

Luka Doncic is once again at the center of the debate due to his constant protests to the referees. The behavior of the Los Angeles Lakers player does not go unnoticed and has sparked criticism from prestigious journalists like Brian Windhorst of ESPN, who publicly questioned his attitude following comments from the Slovenian regarding his commitment to the Los Angeles team.

Windhorst questions Doncic's commitment

Doncic recently promised Lakers fans that he would not take any rest nights during this season. A statement meant to make it clear that he would be available to help the team. However, Windhorst seized those words to pose a rhetorical question to the player.

“The problem is that when you say, ‘I’m not going to take a night off,’ are you going to take possession off because you’re complaining to the referees?” the journalist questioned live.

In this way, the reporter highlighted the time Doncic spends protesting refereeing decisions during games, a behavior that continues to generate criticism in the NBA.

Yaxel Lendeborg also criticizes the Slovenian

Windhorst has not been the only one to reproach Doncic for his behavior with the officials. Recently, Golden State Warriors rookie Yaxel Lendeborg also criticized the Lakers player after his confrontation with him.

“I’ve lost all respect for Doncic. It was horrible. So much theater, so much theater, so much looking for fouls, so much begging the referee,” Lendeborg stated.

The words of the Warriors player thus add to the criticism received by Doncic, whose attitude toward referees continues to be one of the most discussed issues surrounding the Slovenian star.
