Fans Label Billionaire Mark Cuban the ?Biggest Clown in Pro Sports? After Baffling Protest Following Controversial Fiasco for Luka Doncic?s Team

The Dallas Mavericks are in a tough spot right now despite brilliant performances from superstar Luka Doncic. After three straight losses, the team has gone from playoff contention to out of the play-in picture. Even though the Mavs can still make the play-in tournament, they will have to rely on their opponents’ slip-ups. They could have enhanced their chances had they won their game against the Golden State Warriors, since the Dubs are also in the fighting. But after the Mavs lost the game 127-125, there were reports that Mark Cuban was planning to protest the loss alleging a referee mistake.

There was a major mishap in the third quarter of the game between the Mavericks and the reigning champions. The Warriors in-bounded the ball and got an easy slam without any opponents in sight. Because every Mavs player was at the other end. This prompted a fiasco that had a lot of drama in store for the NBA fraternity.
