Lakers star Luka Doncic clear to play at Detroit after the NBA rescinds his
16th technical foul
By The Associated Press
Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic is clear to play Monday night at Detroit
after the NBA rescinded his 16th technical foul of the season.
Doncic and Magic center Goga Bitadze each received a technical foul with 1:19
left in the third quarter of Los Angeles' 105-104 win at Orlando on Saturday
night. The players exchanged words while Doncic was at the free-throw line, and
appeared to continue the conversation on the way down the court.
The NBA announced on Sunday that the technical on each player had been
rescinded. A 16th technical foul triggers a one-game suspension.
The Lakers have won nine in a row going into the matchup with the Eastern
Conference-leading Pistons. Doncic is averaging 40 points, 8.4 rebounds and 7.4
assists during the streak.
