Marcus Morris mocks Luka Doncic after dirty fouls and playoff exit

Luka Doncic is one of the most talented young players in the NBA right now, and he gave theLos Angeles Clippers a plateful of his offensive repertoire in the first round of the playoffs. That’s why Marcus Morris did whatever he could to take him out of the competition, both literally and figuratively.

Morris stepped on his injured ankle in Game 5. Doncic and social media called him out for purposely trying to hurt him, so he took it to his Twitter account to say that he’s a competitor and not a dirty player.

And, in case people were wondering whether he did that on purpose or not, Morris shoved Doncic in the head with a dirty and unnecessary foul just 10 minutes into Game 6, thus being ejected with a flagrant two foul.

Doncic had to be contained to not retaliate, as he has clearly infuriated at Morris’ dirty attempts to hurt him or take him out of the game, and once again criticized him following his team’s loss by claiming that he didn’t want to deal with that kind of player.

Things got even worse when Bleacher Report posted the quote of Doncic’s critics towards Morris on Instagram. Marcus didn’t take the high road and instead mocked the Mavs’ star by commenting ‘Cry me a river. Clips in 6’.

Morris has earned a reputation around the league for that kind of behavior and the NBA may look into that foul and comment to enforce a bigger penalty on him. So, if there were any doubts about Marcus’ intentions to hurt Doncic in Game 5, I think that pretty much clears the air. It’s ok to compete at the highest level, especially in the playoffs, but there’s just no room for dirty fouls in the game.
