The Lakers snapped a three-game losing streak over the weekend by taking it to the shorthanded Warriors at Chase Center on Saturday night, winning 129–101. It was a needed release of frustration for Los Angeles after a blowout loss at the hands of the Celtics was followed by two narrow defeats by four points combined. However, one moment from the victory over Golden State has followed the Lakers into this week.
Over the last few days, a clip of Luka Dončić appearing to bicker with coach JJ Redick on the L.A. sideline has gone viral. Redick was getting in Dončić’s ear after subbing him out and literally grabbed his arm to implore him to listen before Dončić took a seat. After a brief converstaion Redick walked back up the sideline; Dončić looked like he was going to follow his coach to continue the argument but Jarred Vanderbilt interceded by casually standing in his star teammate’s way.
