Luka Doncic facing suspension vs. Pacers after 16th tech

Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic is facing a one-game suspension after being called for his 16th technical foul of the season during Sunday's road game against the Charlotte Hornets.

Doncic was whistled for a technical foul with 7:51 remaining in the third quarter for arguing a no-call after missing a shot on a drive to the basket. Unless the league office rescinds the technical, Doncic will serve the suspension Monday night, when the Mavs play the Indiana Pacers on the road.

Players automatically get a one-game suspension after 16 technical fouls each season, and for every two technicals thereafter.
