Luka Doncic and LeBron James sat out for the game against the Milwaukee Bucks and the Lakers fell poorly short to Giannis Antetokounmpo’s play.
Giannis had 28 points in his 29 minutes of play, with seven rebounds and five assists. It was too much for the Lakers bench to witness while their top guns were resting. However, the referees’ ignorant behavior during the game is getting attention on the internet.
While dribbling a low ball, Antetokounmpo carried the ball while giving a back snap to Lakers Jordan Goodwin. Though, no whistles were blown, and the LA bench, including LeBron and Doncic, was left baffled.
