The Dallas Mavericks will file a protest of their 127-125 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night, team governor Mark Cuban told ESPN.
The protest is due to an uncontested dunk by Warriors center Kevon Looney after a timeout with 1:54 remaining in the third quarter. The Mavericks believed they had possession of the ball, which Cuban attributed to an officiating error.
Cuban tweeted his account of the incident Wednesday night, saying the refs had initially said it was Mavs ball and that Dallas then called timeout.
"During the time out the official changed the call and never told us," Cuban said in his tweet.
