There’s some drama brewing in Dallas between Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis.

On Sunday afternoon, the Dallas Mavericks were eliminated from the playoffs after losing game 7 to the LA Clippers despite a 46 point performance from Doncic.

A day after the game, ESPN’s Tim MacMahon released a report on the friction between Doncic and Porzingis this season. According to MacMahon,, a source close to Porzingis told him that the big man is frustrated playing alongside Doncic because Luka dominates that ball and the spotlight leaving him as an “afterthought.”

Then there are questions about the chemistry between Doncic and Porzingis. The Mavs’ franchise cornerstones admittedly aren’t friends, a distant dynamic that team owner Mark Cuban has compared to the early stages of the partnership between Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Terry, which ultimately produced two NBA Finals appearances and a championship.

But Porzingis has been frustrated, often feeling more like an afterthought than a co-star as Doncic dominates the ball and the spotlight, sources told ESPN.

Fans immediately mocked Porzingis over his reported feelings about Doncic considering many feel he hasn’t played well this year.
