Doncic initially received the tech during Sunday’s 110-104 loss to the Charlotte Hornets – Dallas’s fourth straight defeat.
The Mavericks’ struggles have begun to weigh on the 24-year-old, Doncic saying Friday:
“I think you can see it with me on the court. Sometimes, I don’t feel it’s me. I’m just being out there. I used to really have fun, smiling on the court, but it’s just been so frustrating for a lot of reasons, not just basketball.”
Dallas’s acquisition of fellow superstar Kyrie Irving has failed to have its desired effect – the Mavs just 7-13 since his arrival.
It’s hard to blame Doncic for the team’s woes as the Slovenian native is averaging a career-high 33.1 points along with 8.7 rebounds and 8.2 assists in 60 games this season.
The Mavericks sit 11th in the Western Conference with a 36-39 record.
