However, that was because the Clippers tightened the defense on the Slovenian guard and even sent multiple players just to stop him from punishing them.</p><p>Nonetheless, that strategy backfired, with other Mavs players taking advantage of the lack of coverage Luka Doncic made for them. Jalen Brunson benefited the most, scoring nine of his 15 points of the game in the closing period.</p><p>Of course, the Mavs can’t expect the same in <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/scores/nba" rel="noopener">Game 2</a>, with the Clippers already strategizing on how to limit Doncic.

Porzingis will also be crucial as he hopes to register a big game this time around with all the focus on his running mate.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Brunson played possum all the way.

After he lost the bet, Brunson posted on his Twitter account and mocked how Doncic had no idea who NFL Hall of Famer Terrell Owens was.

He picked up his fourth foul during the opening minute of the third quarter (prompting him to visibly and unsuccessfully protest removal from the game), then earned his fifth foul at the onset of the final period.</p><p>To Doncic’s delight, though, the Mavs responded with a 14-4 run to put the game out of reach. During that stretch, the broadcast caught Mavs guard Jalen Brunson, who is not in the bubble but was in virtual attendance to support his team.</p><p>The Mavs shared the moment capturing Brunson on their Instagram feed later, and Doncic teased Brunson for his apparent lack of energy while on camera. Brunson responded by roasting Doncic—who normally carries Dallas in crunch-time—for missing out on the fourth quarter action while his teammates took it to the no. 2-seeded Clippers.</p><blockquote>“wake up yooo!!!” Doncic commented.“stop fouling and I’ll watch you hack!” Brunson replied.</blockquote><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/CEGJHVcDKb2/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="12" style=" background:#FFF;
