Dallas Mavericks star Luka Dončić and head coach Jason Kidd were both ejected from its 116-106 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday as the team’s underwhelming season continues. With Dallas trailing 85-69 with two minutes left in the third quarter, Dončić was bumped by Minnesota’s Jaden McDaniels as he attempted to defend a shot from the Slovenian. Despite Dončić’s protests and to his ire, the referee’s chose not to call a foul for the contact.

I was like: ‘Oh, that’s a surprise.’” Kidd didn’t take any questions from the media afterwards, instead choosing to issue a short statement before leaving. “I’m here because I have to be,” Kidd said. “I already gave up money, so I don’t want to give up any more, so no questions. “We’ll go back and look at the tape and see how we can get better.
