The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Boston Celtics in a tightly contested game. The most pivotal play in the game revolved around a call made involving Luka Doncic making contact with Marcus Smart’s shooting hand after Smart released a potential game tying three. The play was initially called a foul, but Jason Kidd challenged the call. After review, the officials correctly determined that the play was not a foul as Luka’s contact was the text book definition of “high five contact”.
Luka’s interesting relationship with high fives has been going on for quite a while.
