Luka Doncic And Devin Booker Clashed In The 2022 NBA Playoffs
The rivalry between Doncic and Booker isn’t new, as they clashed a lot during their second-round series in the 2022 NBA playoffs. The Mavericks demolished the Suns to advance to the Western Conference Finals, leaving the Suns without chances to compete for the NBA championship again.
These two have a big rivalry going on, and whenever they go at it, things become very tense. It’s unclear what Booker told Doncic that sparked his reaction, but the Slovenian player wasn’t having any of that, and he let Booker know.
The Mavericks keep struggling with Luka and Kyrie on the court, and they need to find a solution to this issue, while the Suns are 3-0 since Kevin Durant made his debut with the team.
