“Every single trip down the floor, you're complaining to the refs”- Max Kellerman sounds off on Luka Doncic’s referee rants

Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic needs no introduction. From his sheer dominance against the opposition to terrific dunking skills, everything proves that he owns the court as soon as he steps in the Lakers jersey. The Slovenian athlete has established himself as one of the most bankable players on the Lakers team currently.

Despite being one of the most popular NBA athletes, Luka Doncic has been diverting heads for his on-court behavior with the referees. During a recent appearance on the Game Over podcast, popular sports commentator Max Kellerman criticized Doncic for his complaining attitude towards the referees.

Sports commentator Max Kellerman takes a dig at Luka Doncic’s on-court behavior with the refrees

Luka Doncic is one of the most talented NBA stars in the current era. Despite diverting heads with his great offensive skills, the Slovenian superstar recently became a topic of discussion for all the wrong reasons. The reputed sports commentator did not hold his words back while talking about Luka Doncic’s whining behavior towards the referees. Kellerman said,

“You know what Luka’s statue is going to be if he ever gets one outside his crypto? It’s going to be like this (mimics Luka pleading his case to the refs). “This is the Luka statue — like this, with his arms out like this.”



He further elaborated on how Doncic has been drawing attention for his on-court behavior. Kellerman continued,

“Because every single trip down the floor, you’re complaining to the refs. Every trip down the floor. You’re complaining even when he hits the shot. No, you’re not gonna get the and-one. It can’t be that the refs blow every call on Luka.”

During a recent game against the Boston Celtics, Luka Doncic was seen complaining to the referees even after hitting a three-pointer. His complaining attitude drew the attention of popular sports commentator Max Kellerman as he simply went on to mention what his statue would look like in the Crypto.com Arena. However, despite all this, it is difficult to neglect Luka Doncic’s great athletic prowess. He has been a significant addition to the Los Angeles Lakers’ roster during the ongoing NBA season.
