Exasperated by what he felt were missed calls on a great number of his shots, a furious Luka Doncic gets ejected for continuous complaining as Slovenia falls to Canada and bows out of the FIBA World Cup title race
MANILA, Philippines – Slovenia head coach Aleksander Sekulic defended Luka Doncic for his penchant for complaining after the star guard got ejected in a loss that cost them a historic semifinal berth in the FIBA World Cup.
“I know it’s not great, it doesn’t look good, but it’s very, very difficult. It’s what makes Luka so special because he’s a great player. It’s tough to guard him in a legal way.” Although Doncic still finished with a team-high 26 points and shot 4-of-6 from long distance, his two-point clip showed Canada pulled out all the stops to prevent him from attacking the basket.
