Doncic on Irving: Before the match with the Pelicans, he said he was tired – that was bullshit

After Kyrie Irving traded to Dallas last winter, the Mavericks failed to make the postseason.

But this season, everything is going very well for the Texas team, and not least thanks to the duo of Kyrie and Luka Doncic.

In the victorious game against New Orleans (136:124), they scored 65 points between them, and Irving became the most productive player of the meeting, scoring 35 points.

After the match, Doncic told a funny story about how you shouldn't believe everything Kyrie says.

“Before the game he told me he was tired.. So, it was, as you say, an emergency (bullshit, in the original – BS, bullsh*t). This (pointing to the abbreviation of the expletive) is on purpose so that I will not be fined,” ClutchPoints quotes the Slovenian.

“He said he was tired before the game. So that was, how do you say it… BS. So I don’t get fined.”
