DALLAS -- Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic complained to the officiating crew early and often during a 107-91 home loss Friday night to the New Orleans Pelicans.
Too often, in the opinion of first-year Mavs coach Jason Kidd, who wants his franchise player to be more selective in picking his spots to lobby for calls.
"I would lean toward playing 5-on-5 a bit more," Kidd said when asked about Doncic's frequent discussions with the referees. "You're not going to get any calls. Officials, they tend to not stop the game to change calls.
