As Monday’s playoff game had totally gotten away from Utah, Jazz center Hassan Whiteside let his frustrations boil over
With the Mavs holding a commanding 89-65 lead with 5:33 remaining in the game, Doncic came flying down the middle of the lane and was about to hammer home a dunk that would have brought the American Airlines Center sellout crowd of 20,577 to its feet. Whiteside, however, darted into the picture and met Doncic at the rim and blocked his shot, then grabbed him and violently pushed Doncic to the floor.
